The Deschutes County Fair and Expo Center is prime location for the Region One Experience. The fairgrounds is an easy mile from I-97 in Redmond. You have your choice of more than 500 brand new horse stalls within a short distance from the event center.
You will show your horse in a brand new, climate controlled event center. The event center has a 125' x 320' arena and seating for 4,000 people. There is an attached 90' x 125' covered make-up arena.
Choose from 130 different classes to compete in with your horse. The entry deadline is July 1, 2005 so don't delay - contact Laina McNelis today and enter in your favorite classes.
EDUCATIONAL CLINICS
The Region One Experience will have fun and educational events for everyone. When you arrive to the fairgrounds, you will be greeted by a Regional Experience Ambassador who will offer you a guide book filled with all the activities! Activities will include everything from a horse bowl competition and judging contest to discussing the industry standards with AQHA judges. Contact Laina McNelis for more information about all the activities in store for you!
THE TRADE SHOW
This is your opportunity to meet with vendors from around the northwest. Your experience at the trade show will be the place to find that perfect gift for a loved one or to find unique western household items.
If you are looking for space to market your product, look no further. The event center has plenty of space in the event center concourse and nearly unlimited outdoor trade space around the horse barns and event center.
