Scout for President – Pony Painting takes on advertising!

Each week, campers get to paint our ponies with washable paints.  They are allowed to decorate them however they choose as long as they don’t paint the ponies head or legs.  Last week, the campers decided that Scout needed to run for president!

Baby Bunnies!
