Note from the President:
Spring is finally here!
Hope everyone is back in their tack and well underway to participate at clinics, pace rides & shows.
There is a Sheila McLevedge Clinic this weekend at the Ag Hall. Please stop by and say hello.
The first of the Trail Rides for 2022 starts on Sunday from Nat's Farm/Misty Meadows. The weather seems to be cooperating and it should be fabulous!
The dressage show is on June 19th. Check your show clothes now as my don't fit very well... and I am not the only one with this problem at the moment! It was suggested that I "plank" every day, but I am failing on the challenge.
Thank you to everyone who has been setting up trail rides, clinics and what not. Without you the MVHC would not be as successful. I truly appreciate all that you do.
We are always open to others planning events so don't be shy!
Until the next time,
Happy Trails!
Julie
