Greetings FoxTROT and Friends,
Arrangements have been made with the Catoosa Ridge Stables near Crossville, TN for The FoxTROT Winter Gathering! The dates are 26 - 28 February 2010, Friday - Sunday, with the main event being the Fellowship Meal and Tack Swap/Sale on Saturday afternoon. (If you plan to camp be sure to make your reservations directly with Catoosa Ridge.)
FoxTROT member and 2010 Secretary, Moira Funk, will be catering the Fellowship Meal. Those of us who have tasted her goodies at horse camp can testify to her culinary skills. The cost for the meal is $7.50. Please try and contact Moira directly by February 22 (although if you find you can make it at the last minute, PLEASE COME ON), to make meal reservations and payment Moira Funk, 399 Overlook Dr, Sparta, TN 38583, email: funk6839@blomand.net, or phone 931-316-0317. Catoosa Ridge is allowing FoxTROT to use their kitchen and meeting room for this activity at no additional charge because some of us will be camping over the week-end.
The tentative schedule is as follows--this is on CENTRAL TIME ZONE:
Friday Afternoon - Trail Ride
Friday Evening - Pot Luck Dinner or trip to local restaurant in Crossville
Saturday Morning - Trail Ride
Saturday Early Afternoon - After Ride (Somewhere between 1PM and 2PM)-Fellowship Meal
Saturday Late Afternoon - Tack Sale and Swap, Fox Trot Gait Demonstration
Saturday Evening - Meal on your own, Camp Fire Story Swapping
Sunday Early Morning - Cowboy Church and Singing
Sunday Late Morning - Trail Ride
We look forward to seeing you at The Winter Gathering. Be sure to let us know if you plan to participate.
Happy Trails,
Sam Gerhardt
President, FoxTROT
