But the horse industry is vast and the Kentucky Horse Park wanted to offer folks a new experience.
That's why they hosted the gay poll only this past weekend.
>> I founded the gay poll Li Gun.
I was living in Los Angeles in 2006.
And I really just started a group because I wanted to expand by social network within the LGBT space.
And then since then, it's just taken off an hour international.
We enjoy members and 15 countries and we produce 3 international events here.
We do want to Europe every year we do one in Palm Beach, Florida, every year and we do one and Argentina every year.
We were looking to expand our calendar for and add one more international events and through luck and a little bit of persistence, we're actually able to connect with the Kentucky Horse Park and the Lexington Public Club.
And this is our first year here at Lexington.
So we're very excited to be here.
We're hoping that this turns into our 4th international event annually.
So the Kentucky Horse Park.
>> Was it a state agency were formed in Is when we open to the public.
And our mission is to connect people horses to talk about our history, to educate folks on the horses.
And we do that in a variety of different avenues again, from our competitions to our visitor experience for a campground.
So we look to connect people to the horse.
We host a variety of different events.
And so we like the diversity.
We want to expand the offerings.
And so when talking with chip about the league, bringing that to the park, we felt like this was just a great opportunity for us to and inclusive audience to come in and enjoy the park in and hopefully show some of our a local residents Halloween and let them come and experience.
>> you paint a dean's ahead for previous H team.
You've got enough or nutty number 2 to number one.
Any they have.
They defend work.
I'm Megan.
The number one is the more that they need to make goes.
Then number 2 is more like a big fight in the Phelan opened a big game for that.
But for the players, number 3, East Day.
Could be a more they need to be the more this might have to play it.
I could create a big game.
if that that she and the number for you this morning, the defense, they go to see a fumble, a fast We have somebody like a fun to watch.
Everybody is welcome in our veterans.
>> It's highly interactive.
It's very family oriented, in fact, because Polo, you know, it's a beautiful sport.
It's a traditional sports, an ancient sport, but it's also a sport that's very easy to When you see it, you understand what's happening on the field.
So we're able to educate people, maybe introduce more people to polo.
And and I want to say that's how we also hope to get more followers and maybe a few more polo we want everybody to come.
And while we are gay, identified we are 150% inclusive were not ex was.
So everybody is welcome to come to about later.
>> The gay League raises money for LGBTQ+ causes and one of their events earlier this year they raised over $100,000 for the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
