Come enjoy a scenic day with your horse at Sumter's own Lake Panasoffkee Wildlife Mgmt. Area on Saturday, March 3rd, 2012 (rain date 3/04/12) while helping raise funds and awareness for the rescued horses of the Humane Society/SPCA of Sumter County. A $25 donation for each horse/handler team participating will receive a catered lunch along with live musical entertainment and a chance at great door prizes. Along with a chance at a 50/50 drawing, there will be great auction items. Meet some of the Humane Society/SPCA's adoptable horses on site too!
