Vechta, Germany - The Oldenburg Verband has announced the date of Thursday, July 29, 2010 for the Oldenburg Breeders of North America Mare and Foal Inspection held annually at Red Hawk Ranch in the Temecula Valley of Southern California.

The event typically draws 30 to 40 mares and foals and their proud owners for a day filled with nervous anticipation to see how the Judging Jury sent over from Germany compares our quality in the U. S. with what they are seeing in Germany.

The Verband also uses this occassion as a tremendous educational opportunity.  As each mare and foal is evaluated, the head of the Jury describes to breeders and spectators what they like and also, what could be improved.  Jury members are available to answer questions about stallion choices and Oldenburg Verband news from Germany.

Foal owners often present foals they already know they will wish to sell.  This is great chance for purchasing a quality horse for the future at a reasonable price.

This is the 7th time Red Hawk Ranch has hosted this event.  A potluck lunch has become a much-anticipated way to end the event.  The public is always welcome.

More details will be posted here as plans are finalized.
