In an endeavor to help us raise awareness of our organization within the community and to assist us with fund raising, we started the ‘Paint Your Pony’ Campaign.

The campaign was officially started in April 2006 and since then became one of our most reliable fund raisers. Numerous businesses, schools, 4-H clubs, and individuals have already painted ponies, with no restrictions as to what can be painted, added or attached to the ponies.
 

We have different sponsorship levels ranging from:

 

1) Individual or Business – purchase a pony, paint it and hand it in to be shown, then receive it back after the Harvest Showdown: $60

2) Sponsorship – the individual or business purchases the pony, paints it and then donates it back to PTRA to be sold in a silent auction with proceeds going back to PTRA: $50

 

3) PTRA members, Local Schools and 4-H group - They purchase the pony, paint it, hand it in to be shown, and receive it back after the Harvest Showdown. $40

 

The response, interest and awareness that this campaign has brought have been a major boom to our organization. The support that we have received from all of the different organizations, artists, businesses and the Trail of Painted Ponies has been greatly appreciated.
