Walnut Way Equine Extravaganza

The Walnut Way Equine Extravaganza was held at Walnut Way farm in Shelby County KY at the end of June and was hosted by Marilyn Macfarlane (the farm owner).  For those that weren’t able to attend, the event enjoyed a crowd of approximately 100 attendees, and saw a variety of interesting equine performances which included traditional Arabian dress for both horse as well as the rider, young riders showing their equine prowess, barrel racing, tandem riding, western discipline, and gaited styles of riding (3, and 5 gait).

The show was done by the Walnut Wylde Wryders which are the horse farm’s youth members and is an annual event at the Shelby County horse farm and it is used as a fund raiser to raise money for charity.  Approximately $400 was raised from the event, and it will be donated to either a therapeutic riding center, or perhaps even some sort of community service project within the local area.

All in all, the event received big accolades from the participants, and the attendees that got to enjoy the event.
