Ride Entry Forms
Welcome to new member Arthur Sinclair. He recently purchased a yearling colt from Rich Sams, owner of Ravenscliff Farm. Butch and his wife Cindy are quite pleased with Chance.
Welcome to Tracy Lotz who is also a new member. She recently purchased LRF Banner Tuesday from Lucky Rooster Farm.
Lucky Rooster Farm just purchased a mare and colt from Ravenscliff as well. Merlin and Mystic are settling in just fine at LRF. Mystic will be used in LRF's lesson program.
Jenn Sacchetti also purchased a handsome colt from Ravenscliff. She couldn't resist him when she went with Gin and Mary to pick up their new mare and colt.
Member Jim Bibbo just published his very own book that can be found on Amazon.com, it is called Fiasco Farms.
We would like to offer our condolences to Debra Benanti on the loss of her very special mare Beauty.

Shows Welcoming Gaited Horses
Hanson Riding Club http://www.hansonridingclub.org/ offers the following
Gaited horses are welcome into our regular classes as long as they can perform the required gaits for the class and are dressed according to their seat.
e.g.; A gaited horse could enter the Walk-Trot 18+ class and when the trot was called for they would say, trot, jog or alternate gait for the gaited horses.
Or, if in the adult class, same thing, walk, trot/jog/alternate gait and canter. Gaited horses entering a walk trot canter class must be able to canter.
Gaited horses are also welcome into our Games Divisions as well.
