Twin Tiers Horse Activities, Feb. 23 - 27, 2012

Holy smokes!  We have FOUR, count 'em, FOUR events to look forward to over the coming weekend.  

Two are biggies -- the New York Farm Show and the Horse World Expo.  I'll be heading to Harrisburg for a bit of the Expo.  These are followed by a couple of educational programs in the northern part of our area.

Also, be watching the BIG Calendar for some new shows.  I'll be updating it at some point soon.
