Word just arrived that Saturday’s Equest Premier Celebration at Texas Horse Park is a done deal with 500 expected in boots. Among those buckaroos will be Co-Chairs Connie and Denny Carreker, Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings, Congressman Pete Sessions and the mini-ambassadors.

If you’ve got your heart set on checking out the Equest‘s newest digs for horses to help vets and children and adults with challenges, then you can always beg, plead and/or write a nice fat check. Who knows? It just might work.
