Its a Hoe Down! Family Fun Day

Akindale Thoroughbred Rescue hosting its annul Family Fun Day at Cloverbrook Farm in Pawling

PAWLING, New York –With so many special events going
on in 2013, Akindale Thoroughbred Rescue hopes to welcome a record number of people to its annual Family Fun Day. This year’s event boasts a new “Hoe Down” theme and will take place on Saturday, October 12th from 12 - 4pm,
at Cloverbrook Farm located at 400 Quaker Hill Road, Pawling, NY.  

For all of us at Akindale Thoroughbred Rescue,
Family Fun Day is very important as it brings awareness to the community that our town is home to one of the largest Thoroughbred Rescue in NY. It also helps to
raise much needed funds needed to care for the 140 rescued horses that call Akindale

home. “We are excited to welcome the community to our new Hoe Down themed family
event this year” stated Erin Pfister, Akindale’s Manager, “this year we  have added a BBQ lunch for parents and their
children as well as country music and a line dance instructor!” 

A $40 donation per family will include a full BBQ lunch offering Pulled Pork Sandwiches, Hamburgers, hot dogs,
salads and desserts! As well as lots of entertainment! Hay & pony rides, country music with a line dance instructor and everyone’s
favorite Birds of Prey Show! As always, we will have lots of fun activities for
the kids including pumpkin decorating, as well as raffles and silent auctions for the adults.
