Celebrating
48 years, the Harlan County Shrine Club will host their annual horse show and
fair at the Shriners’ Fairgrounds located at Putney on Thursday through
Saturday. Club president William D. Howard said this year’s event will be an
exciting one.
“The
fair officially opens at 9 a.m. on Thursday with registration of fair exhibits
taking place from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. at the fairgrounds,” said Howard.
“Judging for all fair exhibits will be at 10 a.m. on Friday. The public will
then be able to browse through the exhibits from 11 a.m. until 9 p.m. on Friday
and Saturday. The Harlan County Extension Service helps us with this part of
the event every year. “
An
all-time favorite of the annual event is the stick horse extravaganza. This
event is open to all children aged 2 to 12, which will allow them to ride their
stick horses around the arena prior to the horse show, which begins at 7:30
p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
“The
kids and parents really enjoy participating in this event every year,” said
Howard. “It gives the kids a chance to be a part of the planned activities.”
For
equine lovers, you don’t want to miss the exciting horse show part of the event
at 7:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
