Please join us in person in the Magnolia Room in the West Plains Civic Center or online via Zoom on Saturday, June 4, 2022 beginning at 1 p.m. CDT for a lively discussion about Ozarks Mules.

 

 

We’ll have a panel discussion and storytelling session devoted to these stubborn-yet-endearing animals that have made indispensable contributions to life in the Ozarks and beyond.

 

Richie Dement of Centerville, Missouri, who coordinates the annual Hirsch Feed & Farm Supply Mule Jump during the Old-Time Music, Ozark Heritage Festival, will share some of his vast mule-related knowledge and experiences. He’ll be joined by Les Clancy, a mule trainer and frequent mule jump participant from Ozark, Missouri. Matt Meacham, an Old-Time Music, Ozark Heritage Festival volunteer who emcees the mule jump, will moderate the discussion.

 

This is one event in the fabulous two-day (Friday and Saturday) West Plains Old-Time Music, Ozark Heritage Festival.
