The GMHA grounds have been severely impacted by Hurricane Irene. Just like many communities in our area, we have experienced extreme flooding and destruction to our barns and grounds. Planning has begun to rebuild and restore our grounds, rings, and barns- however, we have had to cancel the September 17-18 Horse Trials.
The GMHA grounds are closed until September 19th.
GMHA is now accepting donations at any level to help restore our grounds. Please contact the office to make a donation by check or credit card. More info to follow.
GMHA will also be organizing several volunteer work days to help with the grounds clean up in the coming weeks. Details to follow. Please contact the office if you are interested in lending a hand.
Thanks for your understanding and support during this difficult time!
