they're doing an amazing job transforming the stables into a winter wonderland... i mean who wouldn't wanna take photos with santa and ride horses in fairmount park? 
plus, supporting the care of those adorable horses is a great bonus 
I'm low-key excited about this holiday event! It's like, who doesn't love a good winter wonderland? 
The fact that they're having a silent auction and raffle to support the horses' care is super cool. And omg, taking photos with Santa is such a great idea! I need to book my spot ASAP because I know it'll be popular 
. Has anyone been to one of these events before? Are there any other fun activities besides the horse rides? 
They're expecting around 500 visitors on Dec 6th, which is a pretty high number considering it's a Saturday. If we crunch the numbers, that's an average of 10 people per hour. 
Not bad for a free event, right? 
The stables are also expecting to sell over 200 tickets for horse rides, which is a pretty sweet number considering it's only $17.85 each. 
The stats on gift-giving are looking promising too - with 75% of attendees saying they plan to purchase gifts for friends and family, so we're talking around $1 million in sales! 
. and omg, a silent auction and raffle to help make a difference in their lives is just so wonderful 
I've been looking forward to it all year!
