Family Fun Festival Features Movie Horse Heroes

Memorial Day Weekend:
Family Fun Festival Features Movie Horse Heroes

Families looking for a full weekend of fun activities can find it at
the Douglas County Fairgrounds during the Region IV Vaulting
Championships, Saturday, May 27th and on Sunday, May 28th, from morning
to night.

The festival begins at 8 AM Saturday with an exciting gymnastics
competition on horseback, located in the large indoor arena. Vendors in
booths in the barn close by will offer for sale everything from
gardening goods to artwork for your home décor. Young children will
enjoy the special “kid’s corner” where they can make and race their
very own stick horse! The ever popular bouncing castle will be there;
and for adventurous older kids, a climbing wall. 4-H club members will
be there to show and tell about educational and recreational
opportunities available all over Colorado within this ideal family
organization.

The NIGHT OF STARS performance begins at 7:30 PM on Saturday, complete
with equestrian circus performers, cowboys and Indians, along with the
parade of breeds. HIDALGO AND FRIENDS is the featured story about the
legendary mustang from the American West who raced and won the greatest
endurance race in the world, 3,000 miles across the sands of Arabia!
The audience is invited to vote in the famous look-alike movie horse
contests held during the performance. In acknowledgement of the
military significance of Memorial Day, the contributions of American
cavalry riders and horses will be honored.

Delicious food will be available at the concession stand in the indoor
arena pavilion and from vendors around the grounds.
