Come join the fun! For more information http://equinepromotions.net/northwest-horse-fair/ Also, this year the Expo is adding The All Breed Challenge. It is a timed and judged competition through an obstacle course that will test the abilities of each horse/rider team as they execute familiar and new maneuvers that push them out of their traditional “comfort zones,”. They are competing for $3,000.00 in cash prizes, and the title of “Northwest Horse Fair & Expo All Breed Challenge Champion.” It all starts Thursday evening and should be fun to watch!
