From Baron Malcolm Alberic:
What I remember is that this was the first horse friendly event held in River Bottom Parks near Rubidoux. This was very exciting for those of us in House Montrose because our home “El Rancho del Shurabet Arrih” was only five miles away by horse. We awoke early that day to feed and prep the horses. After a good breakfast we saddled up and made that ride from our home in Pedley to the equestrian center near the base of Mt Rubidoux. This ride was to later become a Dreiburgen Light Horse tradition.
