The Somerset
County Park Commission Lord Stirling Stable, located at 256 South Maple Avenue
in Basking Ridge, joined with the Friends of Lord Stirling Stable to present
the “Stuff the Turkey” Hunter Pace, providing riders the opportunity to make
Thanksgiving a little brighter for Somerset County residents in need.
A Hunter Pace is an event for horse and rider in
which teams of two to three follow a well-marked course that is 6 to 8 miles in
length. There are usually more than 30
fences, up to 3’ in height.
Participants were asked to bring non-perishable food
items for donation to the Somerset County Food Bank. Among the nearly 175 items
that were generously contributed were canned vegetables and fruit, mashed
potatoes, stuffing mix, gravy, pasta, breakfast items, sauces, soup, and much
more.
For
information, please call Lord Stirling Stable at 908-766-5955. Individuals with a hearing or speech
impairment can call NJ Relay Service at 711.
