August 23rd – Caja del Rio Endurance Ride
The Caja del Rio ride will be held August 23rd at the Headquarters well, just off CR62 in Santa Fe. The ride is a fundraiser for Caja trails and profits are contributed to the AERC Caja Trails Fund. Last year the AERC obtained a $100,000 State Recreational Trails Program grant to fund a trail head that includes a permanent outhouse, shade ramada, parking, gravel work, and nice metal gates. We would like to submit another grant proposal after real progress is made on the existing work, but to do so, must have $5,000 in private party funds to match the $95,000 in governmental funds. Profits from this yearâ€™s event will go into the trails fund again, enabling private party funds to be contributed to a new grant proposal. For the actual ride, we will start all loops from base camp at the Headquarters well. We will do a 13-mile fun ride, a 30-mile limited distance ride, and a 50-mile endurance ride, using new trails with great views. For those who do not plan to ride, we need volunteers for taking veterinary (heart rate) data on riders throughout the day, help with check in and registration, etc. Contact Deirdre Monroe for more information and to volunteer: deirdre@swcp.com 6/24/08
