The Equine SAR Track Sessions that were to have taken place during the 2011 Virginia SAR Conference will now take place on Saturday April 9 and 10, 2011 at Graves Mountain Campground.  There is no cost to attend these sessions; however, there is a daily $10 entrance/user fee to use campground for each attendee, which  that also includes the cost for over night camping tent or RV camping (no hookups available).   The TROTSAR Mounted Team is absorbing the cost of the riding ring that will be used on Sunday for the horse and rider evaluation.  Self care stalls are available at $20 per night.  Please note that there will be a safety officer assigned at each session.  RSVP’s must be received by April 2, 2011.
