LOPE's third annual Benefit Horse Show, sponsored by the Texas Horse Enthusiasts Forum Board, is scheduled for May 9 at Diamond F Arena in Seguin, Texas. It's a fun show for all levels of riders and a great event for families. There are many types of classes for English and Western riders of all levels.

Last year, over 100 horses participated in the show, which raised $12,000 in support of LOPE. This year promises to be the biggest and most exciting year yet!
