| Formal Hunt Season Dress
Foxhunting is a sport with centuries of tradition. The
current dress is the same, or much the same, as it has
always been. A neat turnout of rider and horse is an
honor shown to our landowners. It is also a teaching
vehicle for newer members and those who are "capping".
Long-time members, our Honorable
Hunt Secretary/Joint Master Toloa Perry, Barbara Wolff
and Leona McGinnis are able to answer questions
regarding personal turnout. Also, the invaluable
booklet, Riding to Hounds in America by William
Wadsworth MFH, has a great deal of information for all
our members.
