June Activities

This is a very busy month; school is out for summer! We have two meetings as well as Horse Trials and our week long club camp! Also, in the very beginning of July we are hosting a National Level Ratings which this Region has not done in several years. The Horse Trial is an opportunity to complete the 20 hour volunteer commitment to the club. For more information on volunteering at the Horse Trials, check the website where a list of volunteer positions is posted. It is a good time to sign up now.

Our Hunter Pace was canceled due to the EHV virus, we hope to reschedule.

We have more new members! Welcome to Megan, who moved here from So. Cal. Region, and Natalie who has transferred from Tecolote.

Ella has entered the Fox Hunting writing contest! Good Luck, Ella.
