Due to many of the officers and board members being out of town or on vacation, there were not enough required people to have an acutal meeting. We have our August meeting coming up at the usual place and time. We would love to see you there. We know due to gas prices it is really tough right now. Remember there is always car pooling and trailer pooling. :-)

Also, thanks to those who showed up for the Temple Terrace parade, and to those families who showed up for Rainbow River. All members had a great time.

We hope all members are having a safe and enjoyable summer. We look forward to seeing you out on the trails.

For those looking forward to back to school for the kids, it is just around the corner. 19 more days, but whose counting right ? The upside to this means fall is around the corner and that means it is getting closer to Horse Riding Season. Well, to those of us who are like myself, and hybernate in the Summer.

Reminder: Doe Lake is set for 08/27-09/01

More info coming in the August meeting

See you all soon
