Letter from the President

From the President:

Welcome ALL members! I’m very pleased our membership is up this year. The website offers

many resources for the rider. As you participate or visit any of our rides, please let ride

management and others know that you are new. There is always someone around to give you

a hand or offer some advice.

Planning for the future is what’s going to help keep our sport alive in Michigan. We are very fortunate to have a strong

presence of rides in our state. Each ride is sanctioned with AERC and UMECRA. Some also sanction with AHA and

OAATS. This secures the date on the ride calendar. Without the enormous efforts our ride managers go through to

manage a ride, our sport would not be as strong as it is. Contact a ride manager if you would be interested in

volunteering at a ride. Some may need more assistance than others. Please be courteous and follow through with your

commitment. They rely on your help.

Be safe and happy trails.

We are looking for some additional help with our membership committee. Please contact Bruce Birr if you are interested, 906-341-

8562 or [email protected].

Michigan Horse Council News

www. michiganhorsecouncil.com

Hello, GLDRA members!

I hope everyone is finally getting into the season, I know I had a slow, cold, wet start!

MHC news this quarter is from the April/May meetings. April was the annual meeting

and MHC has a new president, Jan Wolfin. She is a member of the Michigan Trail Riders

Association, and her email can be found on the MTRA website, should there be any

need to contact her.

There was a re-dedication of the Michigan Shore to Shore trail on June 21. There were

also some advisory members voted in at the April meeting, one of whom is our own Dr.

Steve Halstead, retired MSU Veterinarian. Us older Great Lakes members surely

remember Dr. Steve working at many of our rides with Dr. Rae. I think he will be a valuable voice in MHC when needed!

I attended the Trails meeting which is held before the general meeting. Much discussion was held regarding grant

money. The Trails committee has a certain amount of funds available for grant requests, and this year each of 5 groups

that applied received $350 for use on trail maintenance for their particular group's interest. The Trails committee also

voted to get more involved with the MHC Horse Expo next year with speakers/programs related to trail riding. A

possible venue for a GLDRA speaker about our sport??

I did forget to ask about the talks with the Michigan Snowmobiling Association about the possibility of sharing some

trails. I will have to bring that up at the next Trails meeting. In speaking with some people in the know, they feel the

chances of this are very slim as many snowmobile trails cross private land. And at least in my area, most private land

owners do not want horses on their trails, and don't feel that snowmobiles hurt trails the way horses do.

The general meeting had a speaker, Senator Joe Hune from Fowlerville, who works on some agricultural issues in

Michigan. He says our Governor has a vision of Michigan being "the trail state" and there are several million dollars to

be devoted to trail upkeep, expansion, and connecting of some trails in Michigan. I asked what did the connecting mean

exactly...he said it would be under DNR recommendation and meant ALL trails. So probably more biking and hiking than

horse trails! There was also much concern voiced to him regarding the proposed multi use of mountain bikes on horse

trails. Many riders explained why mountain bikes and horses are a poor mix! He was a good speaker, but clueless about

horse issues in Michigan. As a group, if we have concerns about trails or multiuse of our trails, we need to find our local

or district representatives and make them aware, repeatedly, of our concerns. The Senator did say that it is true, "the

squeaky wheel gets the grease".

And finally, the Michigan Trail Riders Association will be nominated for a national lifetime achievement award by the

MHC, for over 50 years of dedication to trail riding in Michigan. That would be nice for a Michigan group to be

recognized nationally, so good luck to the MTRA!

Our president, Barb Kurti, was at this meeting with me, so she can verify or correct me if I have misspoken on any topic.

Nice to have a familiar face there!

Well, no meetings now until September, so I will see all of you at the rides, and I hope everyone has a safe, fun,

wonderful ride season!

Thank you!

Andy Redman
