Costs
of Attending Rallies
As the riding season comes to a close,
there is one question that is often asked, "How much does it cost
to go to one of the
womens' rallies?" Well, thanks to Brenda C, she keeps
track, very well, of
everything that she spends. So this year, I asked her to give me
her figures. In 2005, she had a total at the end of the year of
approximately $2,400. That included the weekend that we traveled with
our husbands. Now that 2006 riding season is over, these are
Brenda's figures. |
