Members can attend the post-hunt celebration for just $25!
Guests are invited to join us for just $35.
Juniors under 18 pay their age.
Donations toward the Hunt Preservation Fund are greatly appreciated!

For riders:
This begins our formal hunting season and is considered a "High Holy Day," where time-honored traditions are brought to life and great merriment is shared.
To clarify expectations and ensure a happy, successful hunt, we have assembled a few reminders for you to keep in mind:
Important Notes:
· You MUST get permission for any guest rider(s) prior to Saturday from the PAH Masters. (masters@princessannehunt.com)
· Dues MUST be paid and up to date prior to hunting.
· Please arrive no later than 8:45 to check in with Honorary Secretary Christine Sweet; riders should be mounted by 9:15.
· You will be asked to provide an updated Waiver Form to the Hunt Secretary, which includes the following: Coggins, hunt license and waiver for you and your guest(s). (http://dgif.virginia.gov/)
· Braiding is strongly encouraged, as this is a High Holy Day in Foxhunting. Breed specific braiding is also acceptable. Horses and Riders should arrive NEAT and CLEAN. Boots should be polished.
· Saddle pads should be white and saddle shaped, not square.
Please keep in mind that each of us represent Princess Anne Hunt at all hunt functions. The way we present ourselves and our horses is a reflection on all of us. Proper turnout also respects the generous Landowners who allow us to hunt on their property and make our sport possible.
For further detail regarding proper turnout and hunt etiquette, please see the Etiquette and Attire guidelines on our website.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions. We hope to see you at Opening Meet!
