Members of the Battle Ground Saddle (which I am a member) are gathering signatures, hoping to convince the state to put horse trails at Prophetstown State Park. Adam Hall did a story with the group Sunday. Many places to ride, like Tippecanoe River State Park, are more than an hour away. Riders end up spending more time on the road than in the saddle. Club member Rita Lockridge said adding a horse trail to Prophetstown could also attract new visitors to the park.
As of now the petition has more than 1,000 signatures. Cecilia Wozniak says the club plans to present it to both the Indiana Department of Natural Resources and the Governor's Office.
