Catch the spirit of the past ...

The Manes & Tails Harness Club welcomes the public to our horse and sleigh event. Several breeds of horses and styles of sleighs will be driven throughout the fair grounds and described by an announcer as they circle the show ring. Check out the period clothing worn by drivers and passengers, too.

FREE for all spectators.
Bring your cameras.
Bleachers provided (bring a blanket to sit on).
Enjoy the beauty and simplicity of days gone by.

A Parade of Vehicles will take place in the Riding Arena from 12:30-1:30 PM.
Announcer, Steve Waddell, will provide information about horses, vehicles, drivers and costumes.
See horses of all sizes from mini to large draft, hitched as singles or teams,
to a variety of vehicles including sleighs, cutters, bobsleighs and more.

A new addition to this year’s sleigh rally is an exhibit of small push-sleighs used to transport children and goods through the winter snow. Come and view these sleighs and vote for your favorite! The winner will receive the “Peoples’ Choice Award.”

KP Consessions of Lake Elmo will have Hot Food and Drinks available.

Sleigh Rides will be available to the public. Proceeds will go to the Washington County 4H Program.
