Narrative
We work to provide children and adults living with physical and mental limitations, a safe, enjoyable, and growth experience. Our trained volunteers are at the heart of the program. They are devoted to the caring community members of all ages. Some serve as "side walkers" who assist the riders while others are leaders who guide the horse during sessions. Many others work behind the scenes caring for the horses, maintaining the facility to ensure a safe riding environment, or helping with fundraising.
