Clydesdales in Tupelo

In a special event presented by Express Employment Professionals in association with the Downtown Tupelo Main Street Association, the Express Employment Professionals Clydesdales will appear at the Lee County Agricenter on Dec. 4.

The free event will offer an opportunity to view the black and white horses weighing an average of one ton each the day before they star in the Christmas Parade. Since 1999, these gentle giants have won numerous awards and have achieved recognition around the world including the World Championship in the 8-horse hitch and the 6-horse hitch.

Those who attend are encouraged to bring cameras to photograph the Clydesdales. Hot chocolate and cookies will be available.

Jim and Julianne Goodwin own Express Employment Professionals offices in Tupelo and Booneville. Express employs over 300 workers at over 80 local companies providing temporary, contract, and executive recruiting for all staffing needs.
