This Sunday, October 6, Windermere Real Estate/SV LLC hosts its annual Trailing of the Sheep party.
About the Festival
Sheep figures appear prominently in the history of man, providing him food and fiber for clothing. The story of sheep fills the pages of western Asia and European history. England and Spain were large producers in the middle ages and introduced the animals into the New World. Those in the western United States were brought in by the Spanish through South America and Mexico in the 16th and 17th centuries.
The Festival is five days of nonstop family events including multicultural performers, storytelling, culinary events and cooking classes, a Wool Festival, Championship Sheepdog Trials and the Big Sheep Parade with 1,500 sheep trailing down Main Street in Ketchum, Idaho.
