July, 2010
Our next campout will be August 20th-22nd at the Equestrian Campground. Let's stuff the park . There will be a meeting scheduled for Saturday of that weekend. The meeting time will be 1:00.
Tara is collecting empty cans at our campouts. The monies from these will be donated to the club. She keeps a large plastic bag at her trailer for them to be placed.
If you have the opportunity to use the Day Riding Area, please take a few minutes to complete the sign-in paper located there. This will give us information as to how many riders are making use of our trails.
The Saddle Up for St. Jude Ride was great! Wendy Walker would like to personally thank everyone who came and participated. A total of $1701.00 was raised for St. Jude’s Research Hospital. Laurie Gardner of Portland raised the most monies, with second place taken by Brooke Briegle from Marshall. Third place went to Bob Walker. Any amount was appreciated, no matter how big or how small. Please take the time to go to our web site and check out the pictures taken from the weekend!
See you on the trails!
