From the President’s Corner- Marybeth Conger

2. April 2011 by Bill & Marybeth.

Spring is here, finally!  Fred and I enjoyed sharing the trail with a few brave souls this past Saturday doing trail clean up past the Gem Cycle Park. No one found anything as interesting as Charles did at last year’s Road cleanup, but I did see a certain mule named Lilly with several cow skulls tied to her butt. Aren’t mules great?  This counts as trail work, so please remember to log your hours.

It is time to start getting ourselves and our critters in shape for upcoming activities. We have some great Rides coming up, Trail fun projects, Education events, and Horse expo to name a few. Please check out our event calendar and come join us. We should be hearing some updates on the joint AQHA/BCH Ride too.

Also, our annual Yard sale is right around the corner, so remember to put those items aside while doing spring cleanup.  Keep in mind this fund raiser enables the chapter to purchase some big ticket items such as that rather large Saw that is at Phil’s house and the 4 Radios that will soon be at Rob’s place.

It is great seeing involvement of new members in our chapters’ activities.  Charles and Lorraine Chick continue to provide some fun education opportunities for us. Jake Lemon took on the State calendar photo project with gusto and has finalized that. Then there is Janine who continues to handle Volunteer Hours reporting with some fun things planned for us.

Our Chapter Newsletter is a great way to communicate and spotlight all of the great things we do during the year. Linda is always looking for articles, photos so let’s make 2011 the best year ever by continuing to send her items during the year.  Also thanks to Linda for getting SBBCH set up on Facebook which is but another way to reach out to the public and members.

Look for future kudos….. See you on the trail, MBC
