In conjunction with its 30th Anniversary celebration this summer, the Foundation for Shackleford Horses is sponsoring a photography exhibit and competition of photos depicting the Shackleford Banks wild horses. The Core Sound Waterfowl Museum and Heritage Center is hosting the exhibit at its Store and Gallery located at 806 Arendell St. in Morehead City. This exhibit features works exclusively by members of the Pony Patrol, an all-volunteer group that serves throughout the summer season at Shackleford Banks and Rachel Carson Reserve, educating the public about our local wild horses. This exhibit is intended to recognize the service and dedication of all of our Pony Patrol volunteers, and demonstrates their passion and love for the wild horses. The opening reception is Saturday, June 6, from 2-4 PM, and the exhibit will hang all summer. We invite the public to join us for the reception, visit the exhibit, and see how fortunate we are to have this unique group of folks serving on Pony Patrol. As the Foundation turns 30, it’s gratifying to know that we have such a committed group of volunteers helping to preserve and protect our wild horses going forward.
