Does Your Child Dream About Horses?
(Perhaps it’s your secret dream!)
10th Annual Western States Horse Expo is just the ticket for a fun family outing

Are those childhood images of being decked-out in chaps, boots and cowboy hat still alive and well and rattling around in your mind? Do you sometimes dream of spurring a handsome Palomino into a full gallop as you chase the bad guys?
You’re not alone. And no, you’re not too old to start riding . . . or maybe you want to encourage your children to start riding and exploring the world of horses — an instructive, wholesome environment for kids of all ages. Better yet, being involved with horses is something the whole family can enjoy.

Cowboys and cowgirls, and those who want to be, are finding horse expositions to be an exhilarating one-stop entertaining, educational and shopping experience. The Western States Horse Expo, the largest in the nation, leads the field when it comes to complete immersion in the world of horses.
