    A tradition that has its roots in foxhunting, A Hunter pace is a timed trail ride for equestrians. Hunter paces provide horseback riders the opportunity to come together and explore new trails and paths that are maintained and prepared. Riders follow signs through woods, meadows and sometimes shallow streams. The BLT includes Bethlehem’s historic March Farms as part of their trails for this pace. This scenic pleasure pace includes March Farms and the Bethlehem Land trust in Memory of Farrier Neal John Miller. email eileenflynn789@gmail.com for more details or to register as a rider. When you come, please stop by my art booth! I’ll be taking some photos (not official photographer) and painting. Special offers and a chance to win will be at my tent. Thank you!

    Portraits by ShawnaLee will be there with portfolios and examples of Horse Portraiture.
