Hi Everyone. I am emailing on behalf of Carol with some very good news.
 The Roaring Fork Valley Horse Council has been approved as a 501(c)(3) public charity! This process has taken quite sometime and we are very excited by the approval. Carol enlisted the help of an accounting firm specializing in charitable organizations and I have listed their information below incase anyone is in need, they were a great help.

June 14,15th and 16th a fun horse and rider get away was enjoyed at Gateway Canyon. Dave and Carla, Victoria and Chuck, Roberta, Shelley and Al  all met on Monday afternoon at Gateway Canyon corrals for the first of several trail rides. Joni Keefe and Bill Hutton also met everyone there and Roberta brought a spare horse for Joni to ride!

    Morning and afternoon rides were enjoyed along with spa visits and great food. As one said…It is like having Sedona all to ourselves out here!
