LINCOLN, Neb. — The 10th annual 4-H Foundation Trail Ride Oct. 11-12 at the Nebraska National Forest near Halsey offers Nebraska horse riders a fun-filled weekend.
Participants will enjoy trail rides through the hills and trees, a steak barbecue, cowboy entertainment, craft making, cowboy breakfast and inspirational services and a fund-raising auction, said Dewey Teel, UNL Extension educator in Antelope County.
Riders enjoy great views of the forest and the Nebraska Sandhills by horseback, Teel said.
"This fun-filled weekend will include lots of fun and plenty of riding," he said.
Windmills, livestock, wildlife and wildflowers are common sights along the trails. Proceeds from the trail ride go to the Nebraska 4-H Foundation to help support 4-H activities and events.
