WHO LOVES CHEESECAKE?!?!?
Let PTRA take some work off your shoulders this holiday season with delicious cheesecakes from Michigan's Max and Emily's Cheesecakes.

Cheesecakes will arrive prior to Thanksgiving, so order some for all your holiday needs this season and into the new year.
MAX AND EMILY’S Classic Cheesecakes are made with only real dairy products, fresh eggs, and pure flavorings. All cakes are handmade and must meet our strict standards for quality. The result is a cheesecake of incomparable taste, texture, and appearance that you’ll be proud to serve.
All proceeds will go back into trail maintenance and improvements for your riding enjoyment on the Pinckney Rec Equestrian Trails!
