Let’s go!

This morning we’re shouting out FENCE HT (Foothills Equestrian Nature Center (FENCE)) in North Carolina, which is seeking additional entries for its April 11-12 competition at the risk of cancellation.

“FENCE is the kind of lower-level event that I always walk away from thinking, ‘That’s what it’s supposed to be about’,” we wrote in a profile about this special event a few years back.

📰 We’ve got more information and other news in our Friday update supported by Stable View: https://loom.ly/-1nGVNY
