On Sunday, July 23, 1-4pm they will have free hands-on activities for kids at the 3rd Annual Arabian Horsepower. Children can - get up close to horses, talk with riders, watch kids compete, ask all the  questions they want, and take home an activity booklet, backpack and breed poster!

The show will have tour guides in front of Tingley Coliseum at Expo New Mexico from 1-4pm. We plan on being there about 1:30. The activity is free, but the Expo does charge $3.00 for parking.
