Hey there, young horse enthusiasts! The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) invites you to participate in their annual Name the Foal contest. How awesome would it be if one of the foals you name someday becomes a star in the world-famous Musical Ride?

RCMP is searching for unique names starting with the letter “B” for the foals that might join the Musical Ride one day.
A committee of RCMP Musical Ride and Heritage Branch employees will choose up to 10 lucky winners from all over Canada, including one classroom entry. These winning names will be given to as many as 10 foals expected to be born this spring at the RCMP Breeding Farm in Pakenham, Ontario.
Per the news release, the contest winners will each receive a prize pack featuring a photo of the named foal, a certificate signed by the RCMP Commissioner, and a custom-engraved horseshoe crafted by an RCMP farrier.
