Ogden's Farmers Market / 2017 Harvest Moon Festival

This Saturday, Sept. 16th, will be the last farmers market for Sundance giving rides to the children in 2017.  Sundance will be at the Harvest Moon Festival in the afternoon of Sept. 23rd on Historic 25th Street. Sundance will be dancing on the street at the festival and his trading cards will be given out to the children as they pet him on his nose and maybe get a kiss from Sundance.

Sundance is back from his medical retirement

Sundance has been receiving joint supplements since June for the arthritis in his front leg. I can now say that the medicine is working and Sundance is no longer is showing any signs of lameness and is back to his normal self. However, he will continue to receive the joint supplements for the rest of his life. I took him to the last two farmers markets in Ogden and he was able to give children horse rides in the park and dance to live music on Historic 25th Street. Sundance will now be able to resume many of the events that he attended before he was retired. Cassidy will also be filling in for Sundance at some events.

This is Cassidy

Cassidy, who loves to smile for the children, will be appearing at most events in place of Sundance.

Ogden's Farmers Market

Sundance to retire

Sadly, Sundance will no longer be performing at parades, Ogden's Farmers Market and other events due to health concerns. Ron Gardiner and Sundance have been performing together for the past 19 years but Sundance is now 25 years old and his health and comfort is the top priority.  Cassidy, a registered American buckskin Quarter Horse, who loves to smile for the children, will now appear in many events in place of Sundance.
