Keiki Rodeo Sunday At Waimanalo Field

Therapeutic Horsemanship of Hawaii has its Special Keiki Rodeo from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at Waimanalo Polo Field.

The 10th annual rodeo includes classic horsemanship competitions, such as barrel racing and pole bending, as well as a showcase of lessons learned by the nonprofit group’s clients with special needs. Also planned: a petting zoo, pony and carriage rides, crafts, keiki games, stick pony races, food and drinks. Proceeds will help with THH program costs. For details, call 342-9036.

“The animals require very good care to be able to do the job that they do,” stated executive director Dana Vennen, “and our program fees alone do not earn enough to keep us going.”
