The Arkansas State Championship Horse Show is this weekend in Little Rock.
The 49th annual event brings members of state horse associations from every region of the Natural State to town.
They will compete at Barton Coliseum/State Fairgrounds for the chance to be one of the top 10 in events that include: Walk Trot, Non Pro Western Pleasure, Buckaroo Barrels, and Barrel Pickup. Click here for more information.
The show begins this morning at 11:30 and runs through Monday.
Daily tickets are $8 for adults and children. Two-day tickets for Friday & Saturday only are $10. (Access to vendor booths is also included in ticket price).
A combination of horse maintenance costs, capital investment, and support costs makes this a $3.5 billion industry in Arkansas.
More than 1,800 horses and over 1,300 riders will compete.
A portion of the proceeds will benefit Arkansas Children's Hospital.
