William Shatner to Fund Raise Aboard Reining Horse

He’s known for voyaging deep into unknown galaxies aboard the Starship Enterprise, but William Shatner will climb aboard another high-powered machine – a reining horse – at the 4R Performance Horses Celebrity Slide benefiting Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Oklahoma. He’ll try his skills at commanding the lightning quick moves of the horse while guiding it through a reining pattern and its precise maneuvers on December 4, 2009 at the Oklahoma State Fair Arena beginning at 6 p.m.

Shatner will be competing with some of the world's greatest bull riding celebrities including Cody Ford, JW Hart, Cody Lambert, Adriano Moraes and Mike Lee. Moving out-of-their-comfort-zone, the celebrity competitors will get a crash course in the sport from some of the best reiners in the world, along with their young friends from the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Oklahoma, serving as honorary coaches.

Tickets for the Celebrity Slide are $8 and can be purchased in advance at  www.nrhafuturity.com
