La simulated fox hunting di Spina di Campello sul Clitunno (province of Perugia) is now in its fifth edition. The event is scheduled for Sunday 17 July 2016 and the organization was taken care of, as usual, by Pro Loco of the Umbrian hamlet together with the Spoleto section ofNational Free Hunting Association. In particular, the mounted security guards of the ANLC itself will provide their help and support for the entire duration of the event.
According to the program, the meeting is set for 9, then at 9:30 the Borgo will begin to come alive with the sound of the horn. Horses and riders will gather in Piazza della Spina for a snack and the traditional stirrup glass offered by the Pro Loco. The simulated fox hunt will officially start at 10, while at 13 the return to the tavern is scheduled for the award ceremony and lunch reserved for members.
The regulation of this fox hunt is soon said. The maximum number of participants will be 50 and the Master who will guide the riders will be responsible for the choice of the hunting ground and the gaits of the horses. The sound of the horn by the Master himself will sanction the opening of the hunt and at that point the free run will be allowed to tear the fox tail.
