Clydesdale Camera Day Returns Oct. 4

The Walk for Whiskers, a Humane Society Fundraiser, is happening, too.

The Anheuser-Busch Merrimack brewery offers guests the opportunity to bring a camera and pose for photos with a world-famous Budweiser Clydesdale.

These “gentle giants” have been an Anheuser-Busch symbol of tradition since the first Clydesdale hitch and a red beer wagon paraded to celebrate the end of Prohibition in 1933.

The event happens from 1 to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 4, at the Anheuser-Busch Merrimack Brewery Tour Center 221 Daniel Webster Highway in Merrimack.
