POCATELLO — The Portneuf River Back Country Horsemen chapter has scheduled a meeting for 5:30 p.m. April 12 at Elmer’s restaurant, when they’ll plan upcoming projects and events.
The meeting will feature a no-host dinner, and the group has also booked a speaker, Dr. Seth Lundquist, a veterinarian with Alpine Animal Hospital, who will discuss proper care for horses.
A business meeting will follow the speaker, during which members will plan projects, events and trail rides. Back Country Horsemen is a national organization that works to ensure public lands remain open to recreational stock use, primarily through trail maintenance and improvement projects.
Last year, the organization did work on a new connector trail serving the western hills near Pocatello, called Campbell Creek Trail.
The group is also seeking new members. Membership is $25 per person, and the group hosts monthly trail rides throughout summer.
