Buckhorn Range Chapter of Backcountry Horsemen of Washington will enthusiastically welcome author Aarene Storms, creator of Endurance 101 a Gentle Guide to the Sport of Long Distance Riding. Ms. Storms’s presentation happens on March 8, 2019 at the Tri-Area Center in Chimacum at 7:00 p.m.
As spring approaches all local
equestrians can benefit from Ms. Storms’s 20 year experience as an endurance
rider. She will cover the importance of
conditioning your horse and yourself giving you specific actions to take to
make it happen. She will also provide
lots of information on the sport of endurance riding generally and what we need
to know to get started.
Storms returned to horses as an adult after wasting
her teen years becoming educated and employed.
An advocate for junior riders, equestrian trails, and novice endurance
horse-and-rider teams, Aarene has written numerous articles for Endurance News
and other equestrian publications, as well as writing plenty of articles about
teen readers and teen books for a variety of library publications.
Adventures in the saddle and on the ground are documented with tongue
firmly-in-cheek at the Haiku Farm blog.
