A Note From the Editor
I apologize for not getting out the monthly letter out sooner but I have had to deal with my 93 old father having to transition for living on his home to assisted living.
Thanks for your patience!

Dear Members:
It is hard to believe that the holidays are here and 2020 is just a few days away. It has been a busy year with lots of activities taking place throughout the year and lots of community programs supported by the gifts given by your Tryon Riding and Hunt Club.

The final numbers that were shared at our annual meeting will appear in January's newsletter.

Again thank you for your continued support and hope to see you at one of the upcoming events.

Sincerely,

Gary Zumstein
