SMTR rides bring together lots of horses and people. Every ride requires a current negative Coggins,
which is checked during ride during registration. For your convenience, a copy of your current coggins can be kept on file.
Either email it the club treasurer or bring a copy to a ride. Please remember to bring an updated copy each year, we don't send reminders.

SMTR holds no responsibility for your horse's health or safety when participating in our events,
and strongly recommends that you seek and follow your veterinarian's advice for protecting your horse while travelling through routine de-worming and vaccinations.
