Ride Missouri

 

Ride Missouri is a trail riding & driving program open to all ages and all types of equine. Individuals record the hours spent riding or driving on a log sheet. When a recognition level has been reached, simply submit your log and receive the prize and patch for that level. The award levels are 50, 100, 250, 500,700, 1000, and 1500 hours. The names of those Ride Missouri participants receiving awards will be published in the Missouri Equine Council, Inc. newsletter.
