For the La Riviere horse park in Prairie du Chein, WI:
A membership drive has been scheduled for Friday night, April
27, 2007, at the Administration Building in Prairie du Chien, from 6 – 9:00 pm.
Our hope is to have 1,000 members by the 14th of May. The dues are
$10/year and will assist the Rider's group in convincing the Prairie du Chien
City Council and Park Commission that this is a positive thing for the area.
This membership will give you a voice and keep you informed as details and
information become available on the happenings at the LaRiviere Equestrian Park.
Saturday, May 5th is the LaRiviere Park Open House – A demonstration is
scheduled at the Horse Park Shelter from 10 a.m. to Noon.
2007 Projects: One of the projects has been completed, the City street crew
fixed the crossing between the North and South camping area. Our group paid for
the materials.
Park Registration slips will be used this year. Everyone who camps will be
asked to fill one out and put one copy in the vehicle window and one in the drop
box. This will give us information on the number of people who are using the
park and the areas they are from. Unfortunately this is a necessary evil as
issues come up. We have to remember that this is a City Park and no other city
park in Prairie allows overnight camping. We have to work together with them
and as we demonstrate the actual numbers who are using the park facilities, it
will be in our favor to reinforce the fact that the horse riders are bringing a
lot of revenue to the City of Prairie du Chien.
