Cassidy Sundine, 12, of Iowa City turns her pony Glitter, 12, to join other riders during a clinic for the Johnson County 4H Horse & Pony Club in the horse arena at the Johnson County Fairgrounds on Tuesday, July 16, 2013, in Iowa City. The club is trying to raise $30,000 for a new arena at the fairgrounds, which would be twice to the size of the current arena to accommodate all horse show events, including popular events like barrel racing, and have permanent 60-inch permanent panels, instead of the current 40-inch panels. The footing of the new arena will be safer for horses and riders, too, with a lime waste base topped with sand, compared with the current dirt arena that becomes compacted with use or other events.
