what

You're invited to bring your horse and join us for a morning of fresh air and trail riding. There will be two trail options, a "short loop" and a "long loop" that will probably end up right around 3 and 8 miles respectively. The entire ride is on trails, though there are road crossings. - Similar trails to what we used for last year’s Ride-a-Thon. Riders ARE permitted to ride each loop multiple times if they wish.

*** Unlike our Ride-a-Thon, this is strictly a trail ride- no food, t-shirts, or prizes provided at this event!

why?

As an equestrian yourself- you understand how expensive horses can be! Our herd at Cheff fluctuates between 15 and 20 horses. The cost of keeping these horses happy and healthy is nothing to laugh at. With this fundraiser, we reach out to those who really understand what we do and the challenges we face- people who understand the magic of horses and also the cost (YOU!). Funds raised at this event specifically support our herd by financing things such as vet visits, farrier care, feed, supplements, equipment that fits, fly spray... you get the idea.**

** Just a PSA- Cheff relies HEAVILY on donations- if you have any gently used horse equipment- saddles, pads, blankets, sheets, (even half bottles of fly spray...) we'd love to take them off your hands!
