Description: Meet a Mounted Patrol Officer & His Horse! 3pm

Location: Tims Ford State Park

Join Tennessee State Parks Mounted Patrol Captain, Ranger Mark Matzkiw, for a 30-minute segment covering what mounted patrol is and what they do, as well as the equipment and training required to turn a regular horse into a crime fighting machine! Participants will have the opportunity to gain instruction on basic care and grooming techniques. Accompanying Ranger Matzkiw will be his trusty steed, Deets, who's always up for some attention (and peppermints). All ages are welcome! This event will be held outside in the horse field parking lot at 3:00pm, and registration is REQUIRED. Please direct any questions or concerns to the listed contact information or call the park office at 931-968-3536.
