Horses and mules decked out in their Christmas finery will once again be marching down Corrales Road in the Christmas de Los Caballos Parade.
The parade, set for 1 p.m. Nov. 24, starts at Wagner’s Farm Stand, 5000 Corrales Road, and ends at TopForm Arena, 500 Jones Road, where Santa and Mrs. Claus will meet and greet kids.
The parade marks the kickoff of the Corrales Fire Department’s annual Christmas toy and food drive.
Equestrians are invited to dress up their animals and meet at Wagner’s starting at 12:30 p.m. The entry fee is a new unwrapped toy and cash donations from entrants and spectators are also welcome. There will also be a costume contest for the best-dressed equestrians with prizes donated by the Corrales Village Mercantile.
The event is sponsored by the Corrales Equestrian Advisory Commission, Corrales Horse and Mule People, the Corrales Fire Department and is funded in part by proceeds from the Corrales Bed and Breakfast Lodgers Tax Board.
