Landowner Picnic

Summer is on the wane and our beloved sport will begin before we know it. I trust we are all getting our horses fit to prepare them for hunting which will begin on Saturday, August 28th. What better way to kick off the fall hunting season than to hold the Landowner's Barbecue on the first day of cub hunting.

The event committee will need help setting up, preparing side dishes and desserts, and clearing the grounds afterwards. ...more...

Newsletter - August, 2010

Dear Subscribers, Landowners and Supporters:

As we write this the weather has given us a tiny break and the first day of cubbing is less than a week away. Having finished the season early last year due to the snow we would like to catch you up on events through the Spring and Summer.

The Spring Point-to-Point was a success, having to be rescheduled several times it was well attended and the community turned out to support the races. The Virginia Hound Show was sucessful followed by our Puppy Show and a very successful Bryn Mahr Hound Show. The Annual Horse Show was blessed with a beautiful day and lots of volunteers - we raised approximatley $4800. As the summer has continued our trail rides have been very well attended by the community - each weekend we have offered participants a beautiful part of Clarke County to ride across and enjoy. Many of you came out for Hound exercise - getting horses fit and introducing them to hounds. ...more...
