maynesboro Stud memorial ride Sees Three-Way Tie in 50-Mile Ride On September 15, 2012, the berlin and Coos County historical Society (bCChS) of new hampshire celebrated the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the maynesboro Stud and its founder, William robinson (W.r.) brown, with an endurance horse ride beginning and ending at the maynesboro Stud barn. brown was the most important breeder of Arabian horses in the United States from 1912— when he developed his facility—to 1933, and also put the breed on the map as
the preferred choice for long-distance riding. the barn has been restored by the Society over the past 10 years. Seventeen members of the brown family traveled from all over the United States to attend this historical event. thirteen equestrians competed in the 50-mile ride, with the win being a three-way tie among: Kathryn Downs, of Jefferson, me, riding her Arabian, bey Gibby; ruth Ferland, of Cornish, nh, aboard Jedidiah blackguard, a half-Arabian; and Sally White, of
marlboro, Vt, with rSF rusty, another half-Arabian. because of the rocky ending to the trail, the trio decided to keep their horses safe; there was no mad dash to the finish line. the three lead riders finished at a slow pace, abreast, holding hands with Ferland—the rider in the center— holding her reins in her teeth. In the 25-mile competition, 19 participants rode, with Cindy and peter Seames of Oxford, me, coming in first and second, respectively. the bestconditioned horse of the event was Zambizy’s red Comet, a half-Arabian, ridden by Wendy bejarano, of W. Windsor, Vt. the historical Society would like to thank the astonishing number of sponsors that supported the event. November 2012
