Join Your Horse Friends for an Evening Trail Ride
Trinity Trail Preservation Association (TTPA) is trying to stay cool by hosting trail rides in the evening hours this summer.
This Saturday (June 26, 2010) we’ll be riding out of the Brockdale Trailhead in Lucas, Texas. Here are the details:
Meet at 6:30 PM on 26 June at the Brockdale Park Trailhead for Potluck dinner and educational speaker. After the dinner and presentation we’ll mount up and head south on a evening trail ride. This is a potluck dinner so bring a dish to share and some lawn chairs.
Dinner and presentation is planned at 6:30 PM. No prior registration is required, but you will need to bring an up to date coggins. Join your horse friends for a relaxing evening.
Directions to Brockdale Park Trailhead
To get to Brockdale Park/Trailhead from US 75: exit on Bethany Drive in Allen and go east. Take Bethany Drive through Allen into Lucas (about 5 miles). Continue straight through on Bethany Road, the road changes its name to East Lucas Road and intersects with FM 1378. Go through the stop sign straight on Lucas Road.
In about ½ mile, when the road makes a sharp curve, you will see the Lucas Food Mart and Fina station on your left and a stop light. Turn left here at stop light on FM 3286 (aka W. Lucas Road) .
Go less that a mile to Brockdale Park Road. It turns off to the right. (If you get to the bridge over Lake Lavon you have gone too far.) Follow Brockdale Park Road around to the trailhead. You will drive through three 90-degree turns.
The trailhead is at the 3rd 90-degree turn on the right and is bordered by white pipe fence. If you get to the boat ramp you have gone too far.
You can see the trailhead marked as a horse on this map http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msa=0&msi d=1179...
