Featured Events<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Friday we\u2019ll have the\u00a0Breed Showcase<\/a>\u00a0where 10 breeds of horses will exhibit a freestyle routine and a short explanation about their breed. Following the Breed Showcase will be a Friday Fiesta Night, highlighting our Spanish Breeds and the\u00a0Escaramuza Drill Team<\/a>. Miss Rodeo Idaho and the Royalty Fashion Show will be back by popular demand Saturday afternoon. Meet Miss Rodeo Idaho and many other queens from regional rodeo courts.<\/p>\n

Saturday Night Horse Fever on Saturday evening celebrates Idaho horses and riders in musical routines and skits. You\u2019ll see dancing horses and some of the finest horses in the state. Also on Saturday night there will be Dueling Disciplines with a dressage rider and a reiner. Each day in the Main Arena, the expo will feature collegiate teams of three who will demonstrate their skills in starting untrained colts. This is a judged challenge with the top team receiving special recognition.<\/p>\n

With over 100 vendors, you can shop to your heart\u2019s content!\u00a0Stallion Alley<\/a>\u00a0will feature a variety of stallions standing in the area, and the\u00a0Blue Ribbon Private Treaty Horse Sale<\/a>\u00a0is back as well. This sale is a great place to sell or buy a horse where the two parties do the bartering, and you can try the horse before you buy.<\/p>\n

Kids\u2019 activities are always a hit and there will be a\u00a0Breyer Stable Mate Horse<\/a>\u00a0 painting with a model horse show to follow each day. Also for children are stick horse activities, an Easter egg hunt, scavenger hunts, bouncy horses and much more. Remember, children 12 and under get in for free all three days!<\/p>\n

An\u00a0ETS (Equestrian Trail Sports)<\/a>\u00a0competition will be held on Saturday and a rodear competition held on Sunday. (A rodear is a timed and scored competition involving a cowboy, his horse, his dog and a cow or two to be driven through an obstacle course.)Sunday will be a special cowboy church service presented by Wade Black.
