Trail Riding Events
June 15 Ponies & Pies Prize Ride
August 24 Equine & Vines Prize Ride
|
Two prize rides will be held in 2019 (Ponies & Pies and Equines & Vines). All trail riding events are held at Bridle Trails State Park.
A Prize Ride is like a Poker Ride but instead of collecting cards along the ride and trying to get the best poker hand, riders are drawing numbers from volunteers along the trail that are staffing specific locations or "stations". Each rider carries with them a score sheet and the volunteers will update that score sheet with numbers drawn. At at the end, riders turn in their score sheets and the numbers for each rider are added up. The rider with highest total score, gets to select a prize first, then the rider with lowest total score gets to select a prize and so on until all the prizes are gone. Riders can choose to purchase one chance so you only draw one number at each stop along the trail and at the end you have one total score or "chance" to win a prize. Or you can buy three chances. If you purchase three chances, you draw numbers three times at each staffed station and you will have three total scores, or chances to win a prize. The trail ride is along a marked trail with trail markers always on your right. We have also had scavenger hunt trail rides in past years. We may not have them in 2019. The scavenger hunts will have people looking for objects along a designated trail. Participants will record all of the objects they see. The individuals who identify the most objects are eligible to win a prize. No dogs, stallions, carts or ponying of rider-less horses allowed. June 15th -Ponies & Pies.
