The horseback riding group is looking forward to their fall season with the first ride scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 19. The group will be riding at Rancho de los Cerros in Catalina State Park. The location is only about 20 to 30 minutes away in Oro Valley.

The Horseback Riding Group was organized in 2011. The group rides monthly at a variety of stables from October to April. This past year the group enjoyed not only morning rides, but also an evening ride in the Saguaro East National Park, which was really beautiful. At that time the group saw one of the SpaceX rockets that had just been launched crossing the sky. This coming year the group hopes to participate in a breakfast ride at Tanque Verde Ranch.

If you would be interested in the group’s activities, go to the SaddleBrooke Ranch HOA website at saddlebrookeranchhoa.org and select “Things to do” then “Clubs.” In the middle column is a link to the “Horseback Riding Group.” Click on that and then the link under the information for the secretary, Rebecca Williams. There you will see a web page about the group’s activities and can see the “About Our Rides” section for upcoming rides.

If you would like to participate in a particular ride, simply return to the SBR Ranch Clubs page and send an email shown there to Rebecca Williams. Give your name and the name of anyone else joining you, the ride you want to join, and the time if there is a choice. Rebecca will get back to you with a confirmation and can help with any questions you may have. You can participate as often as you choose. All rides are one hour and at a walk, just to enjoy the scenery. Prior to each ride you will be sent complete directions and guidance on reaching the stable for that month. Carpools may also be arranged upon request. Happy trails!
