Horse Festival: an Equine
Extravaganza comes this October!
Horse Festival: an Equine Ex- travaganza, to learn more about a variety of horse breeds: Morgans, Canadians, Draft, Mini, Spotted Mountain Horse, Gypsy Vanner mare and her baby, ponies, Ara- bian, Paso Fino and many more. Watch them demonstrate their versatility in gaming, driving, jumping, and distinct gaits. We also have a special appearance of the Ontario Mounted Special Services Unit. Come and play with kid friendly horse's bones, braid a horse's tail and learn to wrap a horse's leg. Watch as a farrier puts shoes on a horse or have your "horsey"scope read. Have you ever seen a horse am- bulance? We have it all and more. What better way to cele- brate Canada’s anniversary than to be among friends, horses and food? This one day celebration will
take place on the Lansdowne Fairgrounds 1186 Prince Street, Lansdowne, Ontario on Saturday October 14, 2017. For more information, con-
tact Liane 613-659-4708 or liane-

College in Peterborough. She is taking Biotechnology. She is taking this course to see if Forensics or Genetics will be her pref- erence in the future. This course covers both and allows her 4 month placement to allow her to use her skills in an area of choice.
Solstice had to put an application to-
gether and get two references showing her horse ability and promoting the Arabian breed.
