Trailer Safety Clinic PM session – Arvada – March, 14 2026

$75.00

Denver Area Horse Trailer Safety Clinic

AFTERNOON SESSION

Going Is Optional. Stopping Is Not.

Hands-on fundraiser benefiting The Community Farm (Arvada, CO)

Most trailer problems don’t announce themselves. They show up quietly — until they don’t.
This clinic exists to prevent those moments.

This is a 4-hour, hands-on workshop focused on one thing: making sure the vehicle carrying your horses is safe, stable, and reliable.

This is not a horse training clinic.
It’s about the systems that move your horses down the road — and the judgment that keeps small issues from becoming big ones.

What You’ll Learn

By the end of this clinic, you’ll be able to walk up to most trailers and know — within minutes — whether it’s:

  • Safe

  • Questionable

  • Or a problem waiting to happen

You’ll learn how to:

  • Recognize structural problems before they become failures

  • Understand weight, tongue weight, payload, and tow limits in plain English

  • Spot common electrical issues that cause flickering lights and roadside stress

  • Evaluate tires for age, cracking, inflation, and real-world risk

  • Change a flat more safely using a tire-changing ramp (no crawling under the trailer)


Hands-On Stations

Participants will rotate through stations and work around different types of trailers (as available), such as:

  • bumper pull vs. gooseneck

  • stock / slant / straight load (varies by event)

Stations typically include:

  1. Walk-around inspection: “what looks wrong?”

  2. Floor + undercarriage: what to check and how

  3. Coupler / chains / breakaway system

  4. Weight & capacity reality check (truck sticker + tongue weight concepts)

  5. Tires + spares + inflation

  6. Electrical quick-check and common failure points

  7. Flat tire response using a tire ramp

Good horsemanship doesn’t stop at the end of the lead rope.
It continues all the way to the trailhead — and back home again.
