Tip on Parking: The Horseman's Campground is located deep in the forest. Parking is ample, though it must be shared with riders and hunters, too. The first weekend in November is small game season in Indiana. Bow and Arrow season is also open. There will be hunters at the campground and on the trails. Other than moving the course markings, they are very friendly and would be very willing to put you out of your misery when you finish :-).

To obtain an entry form: Please send a SASE to Jeff Tincher, 10525 E. Dallas Dr., Terre Haute, IN 47802, or call 812-894-3394 (h).  Or just print one here!
