First Trot 4 Kids Event for 2011! Yay!

Hi T4K kids!

I just got the call! My first Trot 4 Kids event of the summer is going to be at Mohawk’s Fireworks Night and Community Day on May 22nd! I’m so excited!

There is so much for kids to see and do there! Last year there was face painting, bouncy castles, carnival games, pony rides, cartoon characters, a petting zoo, yummy treats, and an incredible fireworks show! Oh, and of course- exciting live harness racing!

I’ll keep you posted with all the details!

I love to read! Most of all, I like to keep up to date with all the harness racing and horse news from around the world! The other day, I came across a very interesting article. It’s about a girl in Germany named Regina Mayer who wanted a horse really badly. When she realized that her parents were not going to give in, she decided to train her cow Luna…to be a horse!

After months of preparation and training, Regina and Luna now go on long rides through the German countryside together and even do jumps over a hurdle Regina made out of crates and logs! Luna even understands commands such as "go", "stand" and "gallop" and responds…when she feels like it!

Very cool Regina!

Don’t forget to ask your parents before you try to train your pets to be horses!

Talk to you soon!
