SOUTHWEST IDAHO TRAIL AND DISTANCE RIDERS

The Southwest Idaho Trail and Distance Riders (SWIT&DR) is a group of approximately 100 horsemen and horsewomen from southern Idaho and eastern Oregon who enjoy the sport of distance riding. The club, incorporated in 1979, sponsors monthly meetings, a monthly newsletter, and a year-end awards banquet. The newsletter contains articles of interest to trail and distance riders as well as details about upcoming rides. The monthly meetings are used to discuss group business matters. Occasionally speakers are invited to present information related to this sport. The meetings also provide a social venue including an option for dinner. In past years, the group has sponsored a summer moonlight trail ride in the foothills north of Eagle. SWIT&DR invites all horse enthusiasts (members and non-members alike) to join us at our competitive 25, 50, 75 and 100-mile endurance rides. People and horses new to distance riding can enjoy shorter pleasure rides offered in association with longer competitive events. Rides provide pre-marked trails, camping areas, emergency veterinary services, and usually a pot luck dinner. The outings are enjoyable for families, groups, or any one who wants to see some of Idaho's majestic scenery.
