The recently created Association ATE – Associação Tempo Equestre (in English – Esquestrian Time Association) had its official launch last Saturday, the 10th Mach, in the facilities of Picadeiro Quinta da Horta, within the themes of horses and riding and reminding the old Portuguese riding tradition.
The purpose of the event was to present the Association to several guests, among them some pupils from the Quinta da Horta Riding School, people connected to riding in general and some representatives of some municipalities of the region, as well as press.
ATE’s main goals are among others to promote the national and international purpose of the PSL (Lusitano Horse), and the Portuguese Sports Horse, as well as contribute towards the preservation of the Portuguese equestrian traditions (http://tempoequestre.xm.com/).
This association is open to all those who admire and enjoy riding in a general way, or for those specially interested in the Portuguese riding tradition.
