Festival Of The Horse and Drum

Great festival for horse lovers. If not, you might find it a little boring. Or maybe not. I enjoyed watching several Dressage sessions, but I just started riding Dressage, so it was very interesting to me. There were tons of sessions/​clinics/​seminars you could attend. I would’ve liked to have seen more English type things for sale, as everything seemed to be either Western apparel or stables with training services in general.
There were just slightly less people than the Kane County Fair on a Saturday morning to afternoon. A lot more than I had previously thought would go, but I feel like not that many people go to the Kane County Fair anymore.

Saw a TV news article about this 2-​day festival and decided to check it out with my daughter this past weekend ⁸⁄₁₆ & 17 at the Kane County Fair Grounds. Wish we would have gone on Saturday, but Sunday was a good experience too, albeit probably a bit more mellow as things were winding down. There were many exhibits featuring a multicultural casts of characters, horses galore, live bands, and dogs were welcome and being walked about the grounds. The junk food was abundant and delicious (in moderate quantities, of course). I would recommend bringing the kids next summer and wearing a pair of shoes you’re not afraid will get dusty. Wish they would advertise this event more as I’m sure many more folks would attend!
