Who Are We?
OET’s Mission Statement: OET Advocates for recreational access, partners with land managers to care for trails and horse camps, unites equestrians through opportunities and information related to trail riding.
*Because of our membership we have clout. We have a larger voice. Whether you join work parties or just enjoy reading the monthly newsletter, EVERY member is important!
….and suddenly fall is here! Where did summer go? This time of year is the favorite for many. Cool mornings, warm but not too warm afternoons. We are starting to think about Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and of course our Annual Banquet and Membership Meeting! Our raffle ticket sales are our fundraising for the annual meeting. Please get your ticket before they are sold out! You can win a saddle or $400 CASH! Go to the BUY tab above or click on the saddle.
You can help out with an event, group ride or trail work party, or be a chapter officer ~there is something for everyone who wants to get more involved. We are always in need of folks who are looking for a fun volunteer opportunity that is centered around horses. We have a President, Board of Directors which includes the Chapter Chair from each chapter, State Secretary, State Treasurer as well as Vice Presidents which include Marketing/Outreach, Public Lands and Field Services…..not to mention officer positions inside each Chapter. All positions except State positions are only a 1 year commitment, most folks stay on for a few years because it is a very fulfilling experience. There is always tons of opportunity to elevate the organization!
