3rd Annual Open House and Events Update
This post is to share with you events that are coming up in the month of October.
First, the Headwaters Horse Country Stable Tour takes place the weekend of October 1st and 2nd. The Ontario Sidesaddle Association has participated in this event in prior years, and this year is no exception. We will have sidesaddle riding demonstrations and information available on how to get involved, or even just book a lesson to try it. We would love to see you at Rustic Meadows, 5712 Trafalgar Road in Hillsburgh. Headwaters Horse Country Stable Tour - Rustic Meadows.
On Thanksgiving weekend, we will be at the Erin Fair in the Horse Tent. This year, in addition to having display saddles that you can sit on to see how comfortable sidesaddle can be, we will be having a horse and rider demo. You will have the opportunity to ask questions about sidesaddle for which you've always wanted answers. The Erin Fair is one of the largest fall fairs in Ontario and we are proud to have been invited to return again in 2016.
