I am really excited for my Edge Project. I think it will be a fun opportunity for people of all skill level to come show. I want to just be an easy going, low stress day for all of my exhibitors. I also hope I learn a lot about my organizational and planning skills. I think I’m already pretty competent in that area, but this will definitely show me my weaknesses.     

My biggest concern about my Edge project is that I won’t have a big turn out. I want it to be a relatively big show, that’s what makes it more fun! I don’t really care about making money, although I’d like to be reimbursed for the shows expenses that I am paying for. I just want it to be successful. Plus, if I do have a big turn out, I will have some extra money to maybe pay the judge. This is not something I am planning on doing unless I have the money to do so.

If my horse show goes well, I think it will be a really cool thing that I can add to my resume and my digital portfolio. Considering the degree I am studying, this is something that is really unique. Having good planning and organizational skills is extremely important in any industry, and I think this will be an excellent way to showcase that. If I do chose to head into a career in the horse show industry, this shows that I have a great knowledge about it, and I could me capable of managing a larger, rated horse show.

With the help of the Edge class, I will be able to manage my show extremely well. I will be able to know every detail, and have it planned down to a Tee. There will be no way that I could ‘just wing it’. This is good because it reduces the possibility for things to go wrong, which will make it a much less stressful day for everyone. This is going to be a really cool experience for myself and my exhibitors.
