Join University of Maryland Extension for an evening of learning with Dr. Chris Smith and his veterinary associates at Foxhall Equine in Fallston, MD. This lecture is the first seminar of a 3-part lecture series.

In 2020, Dr. Chris Smith opened the state-of-the-art equine center where your horse can receive veterinary care, treatments for sports injuries, rehabilitation, and performance conditioning. During this lecture you will receive a full tour of the facility, see several of the therapies in action, and talk about case studies they have seen.

This training is for the exam that will be administered on February 6, 2024 for those who wish to obtain a pesticide private applicator license. This is an optional training that includes a review of the study manual.

Study manuals can be found online on the Maryland Department of Agriculture's website: MD Core Manual or obtained from the Talbot County Extension Office at 28557 Marys Court Suite 1 Easton MD 21601. They cost $20.
