  • Dr. Clair Thunes — Vitamins Found in Forage and Not Found in Forage;
  • Dr. Julia Montgomery — Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome;
  • B. Grace Goderre — Equine Heart Health for Horse Owners;
  • Dr. Jane Westendorf — Lumps, Bumps, Scratches, and Scabs: Skin Issues in Horses

Thank you to all our speakers and to everyone who attended.
