Carol
Best ride I’ve ever had on my horse!

I was going to write you to congratulate and compliment you on the spectacular Hunter Pace course and record setting turnout! It was the prettiest course I’ve ever ridden with gorgeous Fall colors and beautiful woodlands. Bravo on your yearlong planning and flawless execution. The food was delicious today, especially the steaks, and all the participants felt welcomed and cared for. Folks came from Vermont, New Haven, CT and Binghamton, NY and raved about the course. Warmest regards

Ann
