KID'S DAY AT THE ARENA


Saturday, November 6th was Kid's Day at the arena. There was a great turnout of some of our junior riders who enjoyed several hours of fun with their horses and ponies. Activities included musical horses, the spoon and potato race and there was even a mailbox with candy inside and a tarp crossing for the kids to challenge their skills on horseback. It's never too early to start that obstacle training! We finished the day with a "paint the pony" session where our little artists were allowed to apply their creativity with stencils and stamps and decorate the horses. The batteries in the camera died before the glitter paint was brought out but let's just say there were some shining and sparkling steeds by the end of the day!!All of the participants received a prize and a bag of horse treats to take home with them along the memories of a day spent riding tall in the saddle.Thanks to all of the parents and grandparents who came out to help and support our young LARA members and a special thank you to our newest member- Ernie Thomas for donating the horse treats and for all of his help with the event. Hard to say who had more fun- the adults or the kids! Click here to see pictures of this event!
