FROM: Ron Atkinson, Uinta County Wyoming Ride Captain

Had one of best re-rides our group has had. Received the mail from Utah approx. 3 hours ahead of schedule. This really starts the wheels in motion. I had scheduled riders to be at state line 1 1/2 hours early. This caught us off guard and the scramble was on. Started getting riders at state line and we headed out at 12;55. Sky was over cast part time so no moon.All riders were at their assigned rides so ride went effortlessly. Near perfect riding conditions, what a fun day it was. Noteable exceptions; had one young lady’s horse Abby Hayduk and her horse Jaimie took quit a tumble, horse flipped over ,rolled over her ,had Mochila come off, by time i got to her she was up, threw Mochila on, jumped into saddle and finished her ride and rode 3 more times. 2 first time riders jackie hoggart and sam lester missed turns and had to be caught and turned around but both riders turned around and finished rides on time. Arrived at county line and handed off to Sweetwater county. A wonderful time was had by all and looking forward to next year. Enjoyed visits with state pres. Les Bennington and national pres. Lyle Ladner and vice pres. Dean Atkins.
