     Where are these clinics, and when are they held?  How do newbies find
     out about them?  I'm in the SE region, and I've never heard of these
     clinics.  I would love to take part in something like this to settle
     my nerves before my first ride (still many moons away at this point).

     I think the main problem for newbies is not the lack of information -
     there is plenty of good sources of information out there (ridecamp
     esp.), but the lack of knowledge about where to go to GET the
     information.  I know getting the word out takes money, but a small ad
     in local equine publications might do a lot to get people who have
     been curious involved.

In our region (SE) there are at least two rookie clinics a year.  Ask
around. I'd like to think that every area has these to help all the people
that are thinking about getting into our sport.
