The Friends of the Little Manatee River State Park will sponsor an event called All About Horses. It’s open to the public, and admission is free, including entrance to the park for everyone who attends.
This family friendly celebration of all things equine will feature a parade of 10 different breeds of horses at noon, including a Florida Cracker horse, mini-horses, a rare quarter horse from Turkey, drafts and others; demonstrations by a farrier, large animal veterinarian and equine massage; information booths; and games for kids, sponsored by members of the Myakka Trail Riders and Triple B Riding Club. These will include a stick-horse race in honor of the Kentucky Derby and a horse-related bean-bag toss.
There will be snow cones, hotdogs, popcorn and beverages to purchase, plus goodies in a bake sale. All proceeds will benefit the Friends of the Little Manatee River State Park.
Families are welcome to bring a picnic lunch, and we’ll have a tent for them to sit under.
