PALMYRA, MAINE -- The Trail Riders of Today (TROT) club will hold their annual Beef Stew & Biscuit Sleigh Rally at the Beem Farm in Palmyra on Saturday, February 7th, 2009.

The rally will feature several horse drawn sleighs and their drivers dashing through the snow competing in various categories ranging from the beautiful Currier & Ives class to the demanding obstacle course. Bring the family and enjoy the beauty of a Maine winter day amid the sounds of sleigh bells.

If you own a horse and sleigh and wish to participate, or just love watching as these splendid horses take us back to the sights and sounds of old New England and its historical charm, come join the fun.
