The pig races are one of my son’s favorite events! Each pig has a different colored bandana and all the kids cheer for the color they chose. The child who chose the correct winning pig wins free animal feed in the petting zoo!
The tractor tour was the highlight of our family day. The kids saw so many fun decorations, loads of bubbles, and bright colors.
