A Big Thank You to all our Exhibitors, Participants & Attendees!

Thank you to all the vendors and exhibitors that made the 2013 MHC Michigan Horse Expo such a success. What a wonderful 30th Anniversary celebration we had! We hope you enjoyed it as well. Once again we are happy to report that m a n y v e n d o r s r e p o r t e d excellent, if not record, sales again this year. Considering our economy, we feel this is outstanding. We know that people p lan many major purchases at the Expo each year, and we certainly are happy to see our vendors do so well. As usual, we were completely sold out on available vendor space, and even were able to fill some last minute cancellations!

Many compliments were received on our new programs this year, especially the Ranch Rodeo on Sunday afternoon. Plans are to have up to six teams participating in the 2014 Michigan Horse Expo Ranch Rodeo. Team and overal l sponsorships will be available, as well as sponsorships for the Friday evening Michigan High School Rodeo. Contact the MHC if youre interested in becoming a sponsor next year!

We want to say a special thank you to all the exhibitors who contributed and/or assisted with our School and Scout programs on Friday. These programs have been growing, and are becoming a vital part of each Expo.

Remember to mark your calendars for the 2014 Michigan Horse Expo, March 7, 8 and 9.

Again, thank you for your participation... and we hope the Michigan Horse Expo was a success for you!
