Fall Day Entertainment

We had a fantastic entertainment for our 2013 Fall Day! Doug Edwards, Jeff Rankin, and Fred Wilson came to Elmwood with their quarter horses to give us a cattle working demonstration. Doug lost his arm as a young child in farming accident, as you can see in the video below- his horse is use to everything being done by Doug with only one arm! Jeff has Cerebral Palsy. He started riding and is now working cattle, he went thorough a number of horses to find the right one for him. These three gentleman put a lot of work into coming to Elmwood for our campers; including bringing 3 cows and 4 horses over! It was a delight watching them work and being able to ride with them. We look forward to many more events with them in the future.
