Location of Ride: Lake Wissota State Park and the Old Abe Trail
Contact: Gordon & Rita Simon
Information: These trails are great for younger or less experienced horses, as they are mostly flat with wide open stretches for gaiting. Trails go through meadow and pine tree forests, along the road and by the lake. Deer and turkeys are frequently encountered. Bikes, hikers and dogs may be encountered on other trails in the vicinity, but people are very mindful of the horses. There are very few bugs at this park in the summer, which is why we like to ride there! There is a portable toilet in the trailer parking lot but no horse camping. A state trail pass is required as well as a park vehicle sticker if you trailer into the park. Check the Wissota State Park web site for fees. Those wanting to stay overnight may camp at our farm several miles from the park trails. We will try to get access from there to the park for riding, or trailering may be necessary. We have plenty of space for rigs, an indoor riding arena, a large paddock and several pastures for horses. We will put up some tie lines as well. Electricity is on site but limited. If you have a generator you may want to bring it. Plenty of water is available. We will have a portable toilet there for the weekend. We will forward more information as the weekend is closer. Please RSVP to the ride by the Monday before, July 4, so we can finalize plans; 715-828-4127 or rrghsimon@aol.com.

Stewartfest Parade & Picnic
A GREAT TIME WAS HAD BY ALL! Sunday June 27th, 2010 We had 11 Peruvians & riders, my truck advertising the Peruvian Horse, & many grounds people and helpers to pass out candy. We really made an impression with such a large group! Following the parade we had a potluck picnic on my farm. My 5 acre farm was full, about 40 people, 15 horses, 6 trucks/trailers, & even used my neighbors driveway for extra cars! It was my 11th year participating in the parade & 11 horses participated. How did that happen??? I would like to thank my friends &/or club members for all thier help! Mike Moszer, Jim LaRue, Kemp Ritter-Joy Larson-thier 2 boys, Joan Meffert -Pat Kuck. Robin Kasuba, Linda VanSlyke, Courtney Wangen & Josh, Debbi Schillingmann, Laura Nelson, Peggy Draheim, Michael & Shirley Mahlow and all their family, & many more! Sincerely , Clarice
