Schedule for The Fox Hunt Day Event: Saturday morning 11 am – Stirrup Cup – traditional toast to begin the festivities Organize the hunters and release the Fox. We have 1 fox confirmed. A guide will go with each fox to mark trail. We are in a National Forest and do not wish to loose people. Ask subMissAnn for Fox requirements. The Guides with the Fox must mark their trail every 30 feet minimum, we provide markers. The Fox may choose to run back to the campground once spotted by the Hounds, but if the Fox is tagged, the Fox must stop at that point. There will be a "free from hounds" cage/burrow to curl up in. We will have Horns to flush the Fox and communicate with. 11:30 am – The Hunt begins The dogs/critters are released next to find the fox. The ponies and "riders" follow the dogs. Being a social event, the Hunt is followed by a pot luck dinner together and a Good-bye Toast. Please look at the LA Ponies and Critters Group for the Pot Luck Feast organization of menu assignments. SPECTATORS are welcome to follow the Hunt and partake in the Feast. ∧ view less ∧
