There will be an area near the State 4-H Camp where you can park cars, horse trailers or campers. Youth riders age 12 and under must have a parent/guardian/adult chaperone riding with them. Youth must be in the care of an adult on the trail ride and all activities. Sack lunches are available for purchase for Saturday noon and Sunday noon. Sign up on the registration form if you wish to purchase sack lunches. Certified hay will be available to purchase at the site. Panel pens will be provided for participants to group horses into small groups (individual pen space is extremely limited and discouraged due to the number of panels required). More specific details will follow after you are signed up for the event.
