SUCCESS!!!
An email, sent to us in regards to the Trail Ride that took place on May 3rd at Iron Mountain Horse Camp, is exactly what the Recreational Rider Committee is aiming for. Everyone who particpated in the trail ride seemed to have a great time. They rode all day Friday, Saturday, and even Sunday if they chose. A meeting was held discussing all the Trail Riding programs offered by the PFHA, resulting in new members for their Region and new members in the trail riding programs offered by the PFHA, as well as the Ticket To Ride program. The above information was submitted by Candy Hurd of the VA Presidential Region. She can be reached at ducktownfarms@aol.com.
The trail ride that took place at Iron Mountain Horse Camp is exactly what this Committee wants to continue to hear, a growing interest in the versatility of the Paso Fino breed and the programs offered by the Paso Fino Horse Association. All of you, keep up the good work.
