CNTRC is sponsored by the Colts Neck Recreation
Committee and donates proceeds from its public events to charitable
organizations such as: Special People United to Ride (SPUR, a
Monmouth County therapeutic riding program for children and adults
with disabilities), ReRun, a Thoroughbred
retraining and adoption organization, The Girl Scouts equestrian
center at Camp Sacajawea, Monmouth County SPCA, Asbury Park
Mounted Police and various NJ Open Space and Farmland
Preservation initiatives.
Each spring and fall, CNTRC holds hunter paces
(timed rides in which the team that comes closest to the preset time
wins) that are open to both members and non-members. In
addition, CNTRC members are invited to attend group rides, beach
rides, poker rides, campouts, and other fun social activities.
A quarterly newsletter keeps members informed of
the club schedule and newsworthy equestrian events. Our
membership has grown significantly over the years to include the
following categories: Riding Adult, Riding Family, and Riding
Junior, as well as Social memberships for those who wish to support
the club but do not have a horse available to ride.
Officers and board of trustees are elected
annually in the general member meeting—they are responsible for the
day-to-day decisions and organizing all club events. The club
website is
www.cntrc.org
and email

Thanks in advance to our 2008 board who take time out of their busy
schedules to run the club, plan fun events and fundraisers and make
generous donations to some very worthy causes!
