August Meeting Stresses Safety


We had a great August meeting. Guest speaker, Capt. Jason Boree from Clay County Fire Rescue spoke with members about first aid for injured riders. Capt. Boree addressed the common injuries that he has seen during his years with the county. We should always have a plan and let someone know when we are going on a trail ride and when we expect to return. In the event of an injury, we learned some simple first aid procedures and stabilizing the injured person until the paramedics arrive. Click here to see pictures from the meeting!

We had a special prize drawing for a bag of horse treats and sold tickets for the 50/50 drawing. A good turn out made it an exciting evening and we look forward to all of the events for the new year!
