EquiCenter Trail Trails 2008!

11.jpg

Yes, Spring is here!  The emails are starting to fly around about the annual EquiCenter Trail Trials held at Davidson Knoll Farm on June 29th.

 

For all of you trail lovers out here this is a fantastic event.  Not only do you get to enjoy a beautifully groomed 5 mile course with your best equine friend but the money raised supports the EquiCenter in Mendon, NY!

 

If you’ve never done a trail trial before these are a BLAST!  5 miles, stroll or go it’s your choice but you must navigate the 12 or so obstacles along the way. Each obstacle is creative and challenging but don’t worry if you don’t do well.  Remember, it’s all about the fun and supporting a great cause. 

 

Want to join our Team?  Rochester Trail Riders is riding in the Green Horn division, if you would like to join up with us you’re more than welcome to.  Just be sure write “Rochester Trail Riders” in the team name box when you register.

Can’t ride but want to sponsor the team?  New this year, Donate Online! Our goal is to reach $1,000 which is more than double what we raised last year. The EquiCenter, Inc is a 501(c)3 not-for profit organization and all donations are tax deductable.

Horse Drawn Sled?

I’ve just about had it with winter!  But, there are some things you can do in the snow with your horse that you just can’t do in the summer. 

So this year I called my mom up, got my old wood sled with metal runners from her and rigged up something dangerous to entertain my winter blahs. 

The result?  Horse drawn sleigh sled ride! What a blast!  I don’t think I can put to words the experience so here’s a short video
