PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Hi Everyone,
Wow, March was a busy month! I'd like to start by thanking all the active members who
helped make March such a huge success with rides and events. We had several great
activities that brought everyone together this past month: the Wildwood ride, Day at the
Races, Doc Larsen & Bert Bonnet Memorial Chili ride and Pioneertown!
We've seen an increase in new membership and rider turnout. As a result, we'd also ask
that people begin to take a more active role at events and rides and sign up to be trail
boss, outrider, drag rider or even cook. Please contact me if you'd like to get active and
join the fun!
In April, we have a very fun ride planned at Vasquez Rocks, which has now been named
the Vasquez Rocks/John Richardson Memorial Ride. This will be immediately followed
by lunch at Maria Bonita's.
A memorial celebration for our beloved John Richardson will also be held on April 18th
Memberships that expire in

Gordon Dibble, David

2015 Day at the Races
Corral 22 enjoyed another wonderful day at the races. Guests enjoyed valet parking and a free
racing program plus entrance to the club house. There was a lovely buffet on the terrace level
and everyone enjoyed live horse racing and great events in the infield. The 7th race was listed
as sponsored by Corral 22 so we got our name in the program and Kat Ungamrung and Billie
McGuire got to have their picture taken in the winner’s circle!
Thanks SO much to Kathleen Ungamrung for organizing such a great event. To those who
missed it, please try to join in the fun next year.

2015 Doc Larsen/Bert Bonnett Ride
Despite warnings of record heat, the day turned out cool and comfortable for the riders who gathered in
Lakeview Terrace to honor Doc Larsen and Bert Bonet. Tiffany Bailey lead the way on her trusty Fjord, Frodo,
who did an excellent job, especially for his first time as leader!
Tiffany took us through green, shady trails lined with wonderful patches of wild flowers in the lower foothills,
looping back down to Hansen Dam where the horses had ample opportunity to cool off and drink at the dozen or
so water crossings.
After a few hours of fun riding, we returned to Veteran's park where the wonderful cook crew had our feast
prepared. Everyone had a great time eating chili and cornbread and sharing good company-and cookies. Special
thanks to the San Fernando Rangers for hosting us on this ride and allowing us to use their facilities!

Santa Rosa Valley/Wildwood Ride
Blue skies, green grass, clear water and beautiful flowers were enjoyed by all who rode the ETI
Corral 22 Wildwood Ride in Santa Rosa Valley. Three horses and 3... mules worked their way
over many stream crossings and up the "Big Pull" mountain, then down through cool, tree
covered trails to the waterfall area then stopped at a picnic area for the lunch break.
Tammy and Mike Gillett and Dora Goldman (Corral 14) drove all the way from Pearl Blossom,
bringing a new horse and 2 mules. Sydney Najduch (Corral 777) trailered in from Pasadena and
rode her big horse, "Chunky", who helped lead the way through several tricky areas.
The only downside was we got parking tickets for not paying the $2.00 fee. Not one of us saw
the sign requiring fees, so none of us paid. The officer cited all 3 trailers for $30 each. So very
sorry to our guests for this incident-no one had ever needed to pay before.
Thanks to everyone for participating in a fun ride!!!
