The annual fundraiser mail-outs should be in your mailboxes within the next days. You are asked to support the association at a level comfortable for you. Our goal is to attract 10% of our members to support this effort - Support at the $100 level and be a part of the 1901 Club.

 

We draw five tickets at our Blackhorse Family Reunion each year and the winners may elect to receive a 1901 Cavalry Hat, Cavalry Saber or Spurs. You need not be present to win. We draw the winners at the Stable Your Mount event.

 

For credit card donations, write your total donation amount to the right of your signature.

 

An addressed envelope is included in your mail-out package. Please support your Blackhorse Association. Your volunteer officers and directors serve without remuneration so that all donations go to our five principal missions.

2012 WILLIAMSBURG, VIRGINIA REUNION  

 

Glenn Snodgrass and his great crew have planned an interesting reunion during the period June 7 - 10, 2012. Please register early so the planners can insure our meetings and banquet halls are of adequate size to accommodate the various events. Our attendance numbers are growing each year and we need good estimates of attendance in order to insure we do not over commit for the various event venues. It is also recommended that you reserve your hotel room early. The hotel has a very satisfactory cancellation policy. More detailed reunion information is posted at  www.blackhorse.com. Notice---- that is ".com". The same information may be found on our website at the Programs/Reunion Link at www.blackhorse.org.
