<strong>FRC</strong> Community Outreach<br />
March <strong>2018</strong>:<br />
Grading & Gravel at Harmon Field Show Office<br />
One of the perks of being an <strong>FRC</strong> member is that a portion of your membership dues goes to<br />
support our Community Outreach Program. A central part of the<br />
mission of the Foothills Riding Club is to promote the understanding<br />
and enjoyment of equestrian activities for our community. We<br />
achieve this in a variety of ways, and most recently, the <strong>FRC</strong><br />
partnered with Hyder Construction Company to grade and spread<br />
gravel around the Harmon Field show office. No one liked to slog<br />
through the mud in white breeches to check in before the show, so<br />
this project was proposed to help with the puddles that had<br />
accumulated after such a rainy year!<br />
Hyder did quite a bit of grading to improve the drainage around the<br />
show office before<br />
spreading gravel that<br />
will help reduce the erosion around rings caused<br />
by foot traffic. The work done will prevent the<br />
mud from returning in the future as well. The<br />
total cost of the project was around $1000.<br />
Harmon Field manager Lewis Pack was very<br />
pleased with the upgrades. This project not<br />
only benefits the members of the Foothills<br />
Riding Club, it will benefit everyone who uses<br />
the facilities at Harmon Field. A huge thanks<br />
to our board member and Community Outreach Chair, Hatsie Goodrich for putting this together!
