Halloween Horse Show Mixes Tricks and Science
About 200 people attended the Village Equestrian Center event featuring costumed horses and riding exhibitions by Village residents and guests. Highlights included Little Miss Norco Cowgirls' ghostly act, Star Wars scenes by Mane Attraction, and riders Harmony and Kerrie Bell from Aliso Viejo. Alyssa Rolands and Jenni Coury painted skeletal and rainbow anatomy schemes on their horses, with two-and-a-half hours spent shaving and painting beforehand. Authorities noted some paint remains on horses afterwards.
