Trailride

The first, hopefully annual, AQHA recreational ride was held in Salmon Beach on Aug 17 leaving from Justa Two Bit Farm.  The ride had 11 riders enjoying the 5 hour trail going approximately 20 kms (even Brent Roy on Chili Asset, first time riding and no saddle sores he says).  Thanks to Lester and Elmer Ronalds - lunch was cooked for all on the trail.  After the ride we enjoyed George Craig’s guitar playing and songs then a steak BBQ which had 30 people attending.  A special thank you to Wally McNutt, AQHA Recreational Ride Coordinator for MQHA, for his attendance, help and door prizes at the Ride.  Profits from the Ride in the amount of $150. were donated to the Bathurst High School - Boys In Red Scholarship Fund.
