Saddle up, equestrian enthusiasts, for the 2nd annual Maui Horse Show Association Fun Day.

Plus, lots of good-natured fun for the whole ‘ohana, with activities including pony rides, games, face painting and crafts. The event will be held at the Piiholo Ranch (325 Waiahiwi Rd.); fairgoers unfamiliar with this Upcountry location should take Piiholo Rd. to the Waiahiwi fork and follow the signs for approximately 1.5 miles. 870-3877; mauihorseshow.com
