Horse lovers are invited to the Parade of Breeds at Chetola Farms. All breeds of horses from around the world are
invited to show off their talents and share their histories with spectators. All horse-people and all horse-lovers are
invited!
What is a Parade of Breeds?
In one place, you’ll see miniature horses, draft horses, racehorses and gaited horses. It is a unique opportunity to
see a vast assortment of horses all in one place. It’s a chance to get up close to your favorite breeds, talk to
owners, ask questions, collect information and maybe pet a few special ones!
This is a family-friendly event
This event is geared to the public to entertain and educate. Anyone who is interested in learning more about
horses or horse care is encouraged to attend. Bring the whole family for some good, wholesome fun. Food will be
available for purchase at the concession area.
