Meet Ambassador

Although this horse doesn't occupy a place of prominence on the carousel platform, Ambassador is one of our most visible faces as he travels around the state, making appearances across our local communities, a sort of "spokeshorse". The four-footed dignitary carries the very spirit of Salem's Riverfront Carousel. A carving of the carousel itself is depicted on his saddle blanket and "tools of the trade" are shown on the opposite side. With a posture both stately and proud, Ambassador is a tangible symbol of dedication.
