| Project Description |
This
project is for all horse and pony lovers/owners. All members are
required to attend regular Project Meetings which are held once a month.
Project Meetings will include educational games and activities, along
with project planning for field trips and fundraisers. The Mounted
Meetings will be held the following Saturday and Sunday for ages 9 and
older. Mounted Meetings are not a requirement but are there for hands on
experiences with horses. Members share information on proper
horsemanship, practice riding techniques, and host the occasional quest
speaker. This project also does community services. |
