Please join on a TROT Trail Ride – Saturday, March 30 – North Tract, east Laurel, Anne Arundel County 
[Rain date: Saturday, April 20.] The North Tract of the Patuxent Wildlife Refuge (the only Fish and Wildlife property to allow horseback riding, thanks to TROT members turning out en masse several years ago) has impressively sturdy trails, with a packed-stone base. Thus, this is one of the few area venues to ride without causing trail damage when the ground is soaked. Our ride will cover much of the almost 10 miles of rather scenic, hard-packed dirt/gravel woods trails. They are flat with no stream crossings, so good for out-of-shape and/or green horses, and are generally soft enough for bare-footed horses. We will have an all-walk group and a walk/trot group, possibly also doing a few controlled canter runs. After the ~2 ½ hr ride, we will enjoy a pot-luck lunch, so bring something yummy to share and a chair.
