Chat with Yogi Howe
-Please join the Maine Driving Club on zoom March 21st, at 2pm (EST) to learn from UK based carriage driver, Yogi Howe.
We are so excited for this opportunity. Yogi is an international driver, instructor, Coachman, and trainer. He has driven Single, Pair, Tandem, Unicorn, Team, 6 & 8 Horse Teams, Trandem and Randem. This zoom is free, so just bring yourself, and perhaps a few questions for Yogi. NOTE: We are already getting a lot of interest, which is excellent. Zoom will not let us have more than 100 people in the chat, so we are going to ask people to pre-register. Here is the link to do so:

A Glimpse into the Maine Driving Club

The mission of the Maine Driving Club is to encourage and promote the sport of equine driving. We offer training, education, and information to our members in the various phases of pleasure and competitive driving, as well as pleasure horse ownership. We provide a forum for people interested in the sport of driving in the State of Maine to come together for social activities and to share ideas and information.

The MDC welcomes all who have an interest in carriages or driving, regardless of age, skill level or the type of driving you do. Beginner drivers and those who would just like to "ride along" are also encouraged to join us!
