Entries for the 2017 Name That Foal contest, presented by the Alberta Standardbred Horse Association (ASHA) and Meridian Farms, are due on Friday, April 28.
The contest is seeking a name for Hare Canada's foal, a filly by Mystician.
Prizes will be awarded for Best Name, Best Letter (explaining why the participant picked the name for the foal), and Best Art (a picture drawn by the participant) in two age groups for eight-year-olds & under and nine to 16-year-olds.
The contest rules state that the name must be a maximum of 18 letters (including spaces), may contain only letters (no numbers, graphics, etc.), and winners from each category will receive a prize. Prizes include iPod devices and iTunes gift cards.
