Dogs and horses enjoyed the hot day, too

And even the dogs came out to enjoy the day. The Virginia State Police swept our fenced in festival area to ensure we didn't have any explosive devices. They were certainly not taking any chances.

And to add to the "not taking any chances," law enforcement was complete with mounted officers. Our mounted officers were from the National Park Police. At the south end of the Park, mounted officers from the Portsmouth Police Department on the southside of Hampton Roads kept the peace.
