Reebles, Meyer Honored at Expo

Sherry and Dave Reeble of Elkhorn and Ronnie Meyer of Juniata were honored with the 2017 Friends & Ambassador Award.  Nominated by their peers, this prestigious award is recognizes individuals who have gone above and beyond supporting horse trails in our state.

Reebles have spent countless hours at Two Rivers State Park near Waterloo, not only providing general maintenance but opened up several overgrown and abandoned trails expanding the trail system at that park.  They have donated supplies to Expo and volunteer at our annual Trail Challenge.  Sherry serves on the NHTC Board of Directors.

Ronnie has single handedly built and developed close to 10 miles of horse trails at Prairie Lake near his home.  He has established a working relationship with the NRD staff who manage the park ensuring any improvements are for the ecological good of the park.  Governor Ricketts was on hand to express his appreciation to these recipients for their hard work in our parks.
