Horse Show and Donor Appreciation Week

Riders had an opportunity to demonstrate their skills during Horse Show week while donors and other visitors had the chance to see firsthand our talented riders, dedicated volunteers and outstanding therapy animals in action. Feedback was given to riders on the progress they have made since the beginning of the riding season and ribbons were awarded to all.
