2008 Camel Training Workshop in US?

[ivieacres]

Does anyone know of a camel training workshop this year-or can get one scheduled may for the fall? I just bought my first camel this week and I need some training with a group to feel more confident with working with my camel.

Check out this web page (associated with this forum site). It has info from last year, but there may be another training weekend again this year.

This is an email I recently received about the camel clinic from Smooth and Meachelle Roose:
We have decided to do something a little different this year due to so many conflicts that arise in early summer and also the rising price of fuel and all the problems with the airlines we are concerned what the turn out might be this year. So we are trying to put a clinic together later in the summer/early fall but also in a new location! We are currently talking with Don Strobel about having one in MI. We think we might get the interest of some people who may not want to travel as far, but for those of you who don’t mind the travel will get to see a new area.
Smooth and I will still put the whole event on and nothing will change but just in a new state and then maybe if that goes well we will try a new location the next year. Do you think it will work? Please let me know what you think and any thoughts on locations since you talk with nearly all the camel owners in the US you will have a good idea on a location.

This is a link telling about their last clinic.

Thanks, Roger! Wish they'd return to California.
