It is a great honor for me to announce that Mark Mitchell is Bull Run Hunt’s newest Master of Fox Hounds. Mark joins me, Jay Moore and Adrianna Waddy as Bull Run’s joint masters.
Mark has distinguished himself since joining Bull Run almost nine years ago. Mark and his wife, Vicky, are both avid foxhunters and after joining Bull Run, have supported all of Bull Run’s activities as well as a consistently strong presence in the hunt field. Mark became an accomplished whipper-in, helping our huntsman, Tim Michel, get quickly acclimated to our hounds, territory and membership. Mark joined our board of directors, most recently serving as our club president. During 2022 and 2023 Mark led and project managed Bull Run’s most ambitious project ever, the construction of new kennels. The project came in on schedule and budget and with such strong support of our members, hunt supporters and the community, the facility was paid for before the hounds moved in!
Mark exhibits all the personal qualities necessary to be a great Master. Please join me in congratulating Mark as he begins his journey as Master of Fox Hounds, Bull Run Hunt.
Mike Long, MFH
