Newton County Prairie Riders

🏕️Camping at the fair? Please Read! 🏕️

Campers may arrive after NOON on SUNDAY. Prior to parking your camper, please speak to Ed Warthen and he will direct you to your spot. Please do not assume you’ll be in the same spot as last year…there is still a little mud hanging around the fairgrounds, so be patient, be kind, and be considerate of the other campers that have to be parked. 😉

Ed’s info is in the comments if you have questions!

Presenting our 2025/26 Prairie Riders! What an absolute awesome group of kids! I am so proud of every single one of them!

Hunter did a demonstration on the do’s and don’ts of showmanship.

We hit the trail hard this morning. 1 horse bite, 1 ripped off shoe, and 1 great day! Thankfully our farrier came to the rescue and even provided Dunnit with some much needed foot work as well.

Prairie Riders were so busy today!

Hard thing about announcing a show is I don’t get many pictures. Here is just a few.

When you horse leader makes you take a nap before the horse show. A long morning of early riding, swimming and lunch.
