London, ON – Spring fever brought out the horse lover in everyone at EquiMania!, the popular Equine Guelph travelling youth education exhibit, featured at the Can-Am All Breeds Equine Emporium from March 20-22.


Even though it was March break, learning still abounded at EquiMania! Kids of all ages were eager to soak in more about horses: how to braid a tail, potential careers in the horse industry, barn and tractor safety, identifying horse bones, colours of equine competition ribbons, equine nutrition, information on parasites and more.
