The very popular and festive Horse and Carriage rides will be extended starting the weekend after New Year’s (January 3rd and 4th). The Town of Wethersfield is partnering with Double M Ranch Horse Drawn Carriage Rides to deliver free rides, The rides will continue through the following weekend (January 10th and 11th) and then conclude with a Valentine’s Day Weekend Special Ride (February 14th and 15th). There are many local businesses to visit for shopping or a bite to eat when you are through with your ride! These rides are free of charge.
On Saturdays, the route being followed will run along Main Street to River Road and back. On Sunday, the route will circle portions of the Broad Street Green. Some rides will be in a smaller, old fashioned carriage designed for smaller groups and others will be a slightly larger hay ride style wagon.
In case of inclement weather (snow, ice), the event could be temporarily cancelled and rescheduled. Keep an eye on the Town of Wethersfield official website, official Facebook page and official Instagram for announcements. You can visit the Town’s website at www.wethersfieldct.gov; you may visit the Town’s Facebook Page by searching @Town of Wethersfield CT on FB and you may visit the Town’s Instagram @townofwethersfieldct.
The Town would like to extend appreciation to the Wethersfield State Delegation for securing funding for this program.
