Everywhere at the Rocky Mountain Horse Expo, horses are the star attractions. In fact, horses will greeting visitors near the front doors and on the busy trade show floor, loafing in hospitable barns open during Expo hours, and of course, showing off in all the arenas. New for 2010, there will be an arena right in the stalling area, where you can catch clinicians and shows and enjoy refreshments at the same time. Rest assured—you won’t go far without encountering a horse, or many of them, at the Expo.
