Day of the Horse Festival
Moves to Stoney Point Ranch


Chatsworth’s annual Day of the Horse will be 11 a.m. – 3 p.m., Sunday, May 23, at Stoney Point Ranch, 10861 Andora Ave.
The free festival sponsored by the Chatsworth Neighborhood Council and the Council’s Equestrian Committee will feature dressage, horsemanship, jumping skills, equestrian displays and the 2010 student poster contest. Refreshments will be available.

This year’s poster contest theme is "Having Fun Safely with Horses." Winning posters will be displayed and awards will be handed out at the event. Participants must be there to claim their award.
Those eligible to participate in the poster contest include any child who either attends school in Chatsworth or resides in Chatsworth. In addition, if a child boards a horse in Chatsworth, he or she is eligible. Posters must be received by April 23. Judging will take place on April 28. Winners will be notified by May 3.

It is very important that each poster submitted have the entrant’s name, school, and contact phone number printed clearly on the back. Children who either reside in Chatsworth or have a horse in Chatsworth must include their home address or the name of the facility where their horse is boarded. If you have questions regarding the art contest, please call Mary Kaufman at (818) 326-5772.
This year’s Day of the Horse is being held at Stoney Point Ranch, a new location. Please plan to park on the street and walk into the ranch. Parking inside the ranch is limited. The ranch is just south of Stoney Point at the top of Topanga Canyon Boulevard.

Jan Eddy-Languein is chairing the event with the help of the rest of the Chatsworth Neighborhood Council’s Equestrian Committee. If you have questions, suggestions for exhibitions, or if you want to volunteer, call (818) 709-4822.
