RULES AND
GUIDELINES:
- Hours or miles are accepted for
mileage, and placed on the form.
- Horses must be ATHA registered
equines.
- A annual donation of $25 is
needed to participate. This helps ATHA to cover the
cost of the initial logo patch, keep a database of
miles completed, and then the mile patches afterwards,
at 100-250-500 etc.., plus mail them back to you.
Also a portion of the proceeds will go to ELCR, the
Equestrian Land Conservation Resource is a 501(c)3
organization dedicated to preserving access to open
land for equestrian use across America, on public
and private land.
- Your trail mileage is converted
from hours to miles at a 1 to 2 ratio. 1 hour equals
2 miles. We work this at a walk pace. Patches will
have miles completed on them, not hours. Gaited horses
will need to convert miles to their gait speed.
- Your Trail Miles membership number
is your equine's registry number. This helps us keep
the correct miles with the correct horse.
- As always, all breeds, ages,
and types are welcome in the program. Email us about
our special 4H programs, for the smaller trail riders.
- Use your program to establish
awareness for all trail horses, but don't abuse the
it. Everyone goes at their own rate, depending on
weather, time availability, etc.. More miles doesn't
mean you have a better horse, just that you have more
time. But courteous of fellow trail riders and their
feelings. ATHA recognizes outstanding trail horses
of all levels, and never promotes competition between
horses or riders.
- Have fun, and Happy Trails.
