fourth annual bluebonnet horse expo
to take place in Austin, Texas The 2009 Bluebonnet
Horse Expo was a huge success, and Bluebonnet Equine Humane Society plans to make the 4th Annual Bluebonnet Horse Expo even better. This year’s event will be held on Saturday, October 16, 2010 at the Travis County Expo Center in Austin, Texas. The Expo is an excit-
ing, family-friendly day full of learning, education and horses. This year’s event includes the Bluebonnet Art Show, Blue- bonnet Rescue Horse Training Challenge (a training competi- tion featuring rescue horses), riding and horse care clinics, a live auction of horse and ranch equipment, plenty of shopping, rescue horses to meet and much more.
The Expo serves four
purposes: educate horse lovers about proper horse care, provide family entertainment, introduce rescue horses to the public, and
help BEHS raise funds. Thirty to fifty of the
rescue’s horses, donkeys and mules plan to attend the event and will be introduced to the public. If you are interested in adoption, come meet the horses and find your new equine pal. Pre-approved adopters may adopt an equine on the day of the Expo, so be sure to get your Adoption Application in early. Anyone who adopts at the Expo or turns in their adoption application at the Expo will receive half-price adoption fees. BEHS needs help to
make this a successful event. The organization is currently seeking:
• Event Sponsors
– Sponsorships start at just $25 and the organization offers vary- ing benefits depending on the sponsorship level. • Vendors – Vendor
space starts at $80 and gives all
vendors access to hundreds of horse lovers. • Tack and other horse-
related items – The rescue is seeking new and used tack, farm and ranch items and horse and ranch-themed jewelry and home décor for a live auction, silent auction and sale area. All dona- tions are tax-deductible. • Clinicians – Equine
professionals who are willing to donate their time are needed for horse care, health, training and riding demonstrations/clinics. Proceeds from the
event benefit the horses of Blue- bonnet Equine Humane Society, a nonprofit organization that helps starving and abused horses across Texas and Arkansas. For more information,
