This pony got involved in the costume fun at the Lake Riverside Estates Halloween Play Day.
Allison Renck Writer Children dressed in all kinds of costumes and riding stick horses was one of the fun activities at the first Halloween Play Day at Lake Riverside Estates Equestrian Center Oct. 31. The children colored, glued and stuffed horse heads and attached
them to yard sticks and these magical horses became the equestrian companions for the children for the afternoon. Each stick horse was unique, from black horses to paint horses, short manes or long manes all were colored and made by the child and their family. Seven-year-old Khloe Wood, who has four horses at home, was busy coloring her stick horse’s head
and when asked if she would like to win in the stick horse race. ”It’s not about winning, it’s just about having fun and I’m having a lot of fun,” she said. Halloween Play Day included many activities; a costume contest, egg on a spoon races, potatoes sack races, equine costume contest and the stick horse races. A pony and a mule were present in full costume.
