Mule owners are determined to prove that anything a good horse can do, a good mule can do better. From trail riding to show classes, mules can do it all with the grace unique to these animals. While classes and events differ from show to show, you can usually see competitions from roping and team penning to packing and driving. Parades, vendors, barbeques and concerts mark some of the larger venues, and most of the celebrations even have several classes for young children to compete in. This is a partial list of the Mule Days that have been brought to my attention. Please let us know if there are more that need to be added here.
