Not only did we have a wonderful ride but we had tasty food for breakfast and lunch. For those that stayed over we had a warm campfire with lots of conversations and laughs.

We had such a great turnout for our spring trail ride. The weather gods were on our side for a change. We rode a new trail and what a beautiful trail. We will be offering it again on the Fall. A huge thank you to everyone who came out. So glad so many people camped all weekend.

We had a small but wonderful turnout for the Barre Christmas Parade. Our president Lynne Goodnow rode Rocky, Margo Petracone rode Star, Anita drove Stormy and Lisa rode Gideon. Anita and Lisa traveled from Vermont to ride in the parade. Marianne Wojcicki was our well dresses pooper scooper. Thank you all for representing Barre Riding and Driving Club.

Despite some poor weather and last-minute cancelations, our Fall Trail Riders enjoyed a fantastic day of riding, eating, and socializing. A breakfast of McFelton egg sandwiches, fresh home fries, and hot coffee set the riders up for their choice of shorter or longer trail loops. Lunch options included meatballs with sausage, potatoes au gratin, Asian-style beef with broccoli, and tomato soup with grilled cheese, and salad. Thanks to all who made the event; we all enjoyed swapping stories. Thanks to our volunteers who made the arrangements, provided the food & drinks, marked the trails, and welcomed our riders. Hope to see everyone back next year!

Everyone at BRDC's Spring Trail Ride loved the new T8. Thanks to all who made this happen. If you didn't make the Spring Ride you are going to want to try it out this fall!

In the Barre woods just north of where the Ware River crosses Rt 122, lies a section of trail fondly referred to as T8. Long used by hikers and equestrians, T8 has for just as long been a problem for all, including the D...

Our annual spring trail ride was a great success. The weather was incredible along with the riders who attended. Camping was great fun with everyone joining up at the campfire. Always good conversations there. And as always it is always quality time with our horses.

Our annual Spring Trail Ride coincides with Mother's Day because of course what Mom wants most is to trail ride with family! Happy Mother's Day to these Mother-Daughter pairs and to Moms of every kind both near and far!

Thanks to all the folks who were able to help with our cleanup at Felton Field today! Despite the chilly day we were able to drag the rings, pick rocks, and clean up and paint the inside of the secretary's booth.
