PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Hello,
We are approaching the end of the season. We
have had a fun year thanks to the efforts of all those who
volunteered their time to lead a ride, coordinate an event, and/or
staff the helm. A huge thank you to those of you who took time away
from their job, family or friends to sustain our passion to ride.
The time has come for some of us who have led the group to pave the
way for the opportunity to inject new ideas and energy into
continuing the success the Cave Creek Saddle Club has enjoyed for 46
years.
The following positions are up for grabs:
President, Vice President, Trail Coordinator, Event Coordinator,
Membership Chair and Newsletter Editor. We will be announcing
candidates/volunteers for these positions at the April meeting,
Voting will take place in May, our last meeting of the riding
season.
I am glad to explain the responsibilities of each
position. Please feel free to call me with any questions.
Happy Trails!
Susan
ASHA Notes from Jean Anderson
The only news I have is that ASHA & the Glendale
Saddle Club have been down at Reach 11 at the Horse Lovers’ Park,
helping out with the Black Stallion Literacy Program’s second touch
for the first graders. Between Monday and Friday of this week, we
will have had over 3600 kids!!
Also, please be sure to read the April issue of the Horse Connection
which contains an article written by ASHA’s VP/Membership, Ed
O’Brien’s. It’s really a great article.
Happy Trails……………………………………………….Jean

FRIDAY,
APRIL 18TH SPUR CROSS MOONLIGHT RIDE 7:15 PM Rated 2.5
The April moonlight ride has been changed to
FRIDAY APRIL 18th
due to conflict with a moonlight walk sponsored by the Cave Creek
Conservation Area.
We will leave the Conservation Area parking lot
at the end of Spur Cross Road at 07:15 PM. John Gunn, of the Spur
Cross Conservation Area will be with us on the ride to answer
questions and generally guide us at the area.
The ride is a 1.5 to 2.0 hour ride at level 2.5 with some long
climbs and some rocky footing. The trail is wide and will have some
fantastic views of the mountains surrounding the Conservation area
and the town of Cave Creek, particularly in the moonlight.
After the ride we will have a little hotdog feast
at Lee Andersons' Spur Cross Stables which adjoins the parking area.
Directions: North on Spur Cross Road out of Cave Creek 4.5
miles to the conservation parking area. The last mile is not paved,
but is very well maintained.
