Ride & Tie Horse Race Ever wonder what would hap pen if there were two people, one horse and quite a distance to cover from here to there? That’s the idea behind a ride and tie race, where two people share one horse, taking turns riding and running across the countryside. In a race, teams com pete against each other, with the fastest time taking home a blue ribbon. The annual Ride ‘N Tie Race, sponsored by the Saddle Cinches 4-H Horse and Pony Club of Northern Lancaster County was held Sunday, October 7, in State Games Land trails between Cole brook and Mount Gretna. Juniors covered a distance of three miles, seniors five miles, and adult divi sion opted for the three mile distance. Junior Division 1. Kerra Allen and Jessica Pfahl, both of Manheim; 2.
