The Odessa Fall Festival took place on Sunday at West Coast Morgans Horse Rescue. The event benefited the Lara Dunlop Morgan Horse Rescue and Scholarship Foundation.
Hayrides, pony rides, face painting, pumpkin decorating, exhibitions, horse painting and many carnival games were all included in the $20 per carload gate entry fee making this a very affordable family fun day. The only items not included were purchases made from any of the various vendors in attendance and food purchases. Exhibitions included a horse show where many of the local area Morgan owners put their horses through their paces in the show ring for the crowds.
