Fox Hunt 2023

Somewhere in Time, Unlimited invites you to an Autumn Fox Hunt!

Saturday, Sept. 9, 2023

High Noon - 5pm

Fox

“The fox is smart and sly as can be
And a great big bush tail has he.
He can run very fast, his fur is red
And he lives in the woods in the tree-trunk bed.”

 “The Hunt” is being conducted at the invitation of the Huntmaster.   Those who wish to participate, shall be prepared to do so in “full kit”, which in this case, may include the wearing of Autumnal shades of plaid, stripe, or floral, in addition to those who’ll wish to wear the traditional red jacket & topper or equestrian riding helmet.

On this day, we shall gather for a “Meet” in the county of Snohomish, which will be festively dressed in her beautiful autumn colors.  There, to the sound of “Tally HO!” all of “the hounds” will be encouraged to draw the covert red fox from the glen. 

In SITU’s version of the Hunt, no actual animal shall be harmed.  It will be your OWN tracking and good sense to spy the elusive fox on the property of antique dealers.  You will also likely spy prized steeds upon the “land,” but you will not be riding either British or side saddle.  “Nay,” your enjoyment shall be limited to photography, admiration or the acquisition of a vintage find for your collection.

Our day begins by gathering at a pre-arranged location at precisely High Noon, after which we shall disburse to pursue the Fox!  We will re-assemble to Show-&-Tell our purchases which we procured while on the Hunt.  And, then we will award the Prize to celebrate the capture of the Fox!

At the conclusion of the Hunt, those who may be interested, may partake in a wonderful spread of delicacies at a nearby eatery.  Everyone who wishes to eat out, may then gather with friends and fellow Hunters for a no-host meal at the location of their choice.
