Estes Park Arabian Horse Show
June 29 – 30, 2013For over six decades, Estes Park has been home to one of the longest-running horse shows in the nation: the Estes Park Arabian Horse Show. Held annually during the week of the Fourth of July, the show highlights the beauty and versatility of Arabian, Half-Arabian and Anglo-Arabian horses demonstrated through competitive classes in Dressage, Native Costume, Western Pleasure, Reining, Hunter Pleasure, and many more. Help us celebrate our 65th Anniversary. Also open to the public is a Paint a Horse Blanket, where children ages 13 and under can design and paint a horse blanket. These will be included in a silent auction to raise funds for Hearts and Horses, a local therapeutic riding center
