A trail ride, horse races, silent auction and more will be held Friday, May 15 and Saturday, May 16 at Kennedy Farms in Cobbtown to raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
You don’t have to have a horse to enjoy the Saddle Up St. Jude Trail Ride and Family Fun Day. ATVs are welcome, and bring your rod and reel, because there are plenty of fish in the pond.
For $10 a day per rider, the fees cover supper Friday (a fish fry) and lunch Saturday.
The event will raise funds for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, the premier center for the research and treatment of childhood cancer and other deadly diseases. Bring your kids, a horse or two, an ATV or just yourselves for a weekend of fun to help kids with fatal diseases.
There will be music, games, and lots of other fun things to do. Relax in your tent, ride your horse around the property, enjoy the evening’s entertainment Friday evening or get together for the big ride Saturday morning, starting at 8:30 a.m.
Any donations are welcome. You don’t have to ride horses to help the children - come out for the food, fun and entertainment and donate what you are able. All proceeds go to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
