Southern Ohio Ladies Aside Sidesaddle Club

 


Feast of the Flowering Moon - 1995

The Southern Ohio Ladies Aside all sidesaddle mounted drill team was founded in 1991 to help promote the nearly forgotten art of sidesaddle riding and bring it into the 21st century. SOLA now has its own web site at

www.southernohioladiesaside.com

 

Many members have their own sidesaddles and horses, but many also use Maggie’s saddles and her or David’s horses.

 

Coming in 2009:
