The 49th Annual Arkansas State Championship Horse Show is in Little Rock this weekend.

And get this -- 1,200 riders and close to 2,000 horses are competing in the events.

With maintenance costs and capital investment, equestrian events are a three and a half billion dollar industry in Arkansas.

Some of the proceeds raised this weekend benefit Arkansas Children's Hospital.
