Formal Season Opening / Blessing / Brunch - November 4th
Blessing youth field
You could not have ordered a more perfect day for the opening. After a tasty stirrup cup the Deacon performed the blessing. Three fields of about 60 riders moved out for a nice 2 1/2 hour hunt covering most of the club's land. Lei Ruckle and Eleanor with the youth field prior to heading out. I counted 11 youth riders - a great turnout. Let's all help and encourage them as much as possible since they are the club's future.
brunch Harwood

Mary and Lee seem to be enjoying the bar service.

Hats off to Marilyn Carney and all the workers in the kitchen who made sure the pot-luck brunch was a huge success. Nobody went home hungry.

Marge and Marvin Harwood were the guests of honor as the club showed their appreciation for the couple's tireless dedication to the equestrian community spanning six decades.
Florence Shinkle presented a faux Post-Dispatch cover honoring the couple. To view the full page click here (pdf)
