paint your own pony, using the Paint Your Own Pony kit.

First Place winner, Kelly C. from Bartonsville, PA,
and her pony, "Jimmy Hoof-a."

Jimmy Hoof-a got a little beat up before he got sent to swim with the fishies...

Front Detail shot of Jimmy Hoof-a, which took First Place in the
Paint Your Own Pony contest. The fishies aren't quite sure what he's
doing handcuffed and cinderblocked down on the ocean floor....

Lynn and our Second Place winner, Ginger P. from Mechanicsburg, PA,
with her pony, "Colors of the Wind."

Photos don't do this pony justice, she not only looks like
she's running through a rainbow, but she's also covered
mane to hoof in sparkling glitter!

Lynn with our Third Place winner, Michelle W. from Strasburg, VA,
and her pony, "Sea Kelp."
Detailed photos of Sea Kelp will be posted soon!

And lastly, Lynn with Mindy, the crazy woman who updates our website
with new products and sends our update emails! If you look at the photo
galleries for our other special events, you aren't seeing things, Mindy's hair
really does change color just about every month!
