EquiMania! and the Minnesota State Fair partnered this year and subsequently received two prestigious awards given by the International Association of Fairs and Expositions. Together the Minnesota State Fair and EquiMania! won the categories of:
- Fair and Sponsor/Partner joint Exhibit Program, and
- Special or Specific Agricultural Educational Event, Exhibit or Program for the Fairgoing Public
EquiMania! certainly made an impact at its inaugural appearance at Minnesota State Fair! Produced by Equine Guelph at the University of Guelph, EquiMania! is an interactive youth education program and exhibition designed to teach kids about horse health and safety. EquiMania! moved in at the Minnesota State Fair horse barn and that is where the replicated display will stay for the next five years to cater to a whole new audience in the U.S.
Bring EquiMania! to your event! EquiMania! is taking event bookings and recruiting volunteers for 2014. Contact eq4kids@uoguelph.ca.
