Greetings!
The Huntingdon Valley Hunt is hosting its fall hunter
pace at Fox Heath, on the day after Thanksgiving. Save the date:
Friday, November 27, 2009. Start times will be noon to 2:00. Divisions will be
Junior, Open, and Family
It's a beautiful marked ride of approximately 8 miles, with creek crossings,
natural jumps, woodland trails, and open fields. Jumps of 2' to 2'9" are
optional. Riders may go as slow or as fast as they wish. However, if you want to
be in the ribbons you will need to go at a suitable hunting pace, based on the
conditions of the day. Following the Pace, there will be complimentary
refreshments.
The Saddlery at Fox Heath will also be open on November 27th from noon until
5:00, featuring our last Tent Sale before the holidays. New merchandise is
arriving daily. Stop by for great savings, and get a jump start on your holiday
shopping. If you see something you'd like for yourself, you can register a wish
list.
In case of rain, the Pace and Tent Sale will be postponed to Sunday, November
29th. Same place, same times.
Happy Halloween!!!
A wonderful time was had by all at the
October 25th show! Once again the Halloween classes were outstanding.

Station;
