We were able to raise funds to help support our programs and our horses for this coming year
SPOOK-TACULAR FUN at our annual Halloween Fun Show!
There were 22 participants in our Fun Show enjoying games, riding, and a costume contest! Students came in creative fun costumes and enjoyed showing off the skills they have been working on. The horses were up for the challenge making it a fun and safe day for growth and community. See pictures of the event here!
A big Shout out to CBL Properties and their INCREDIBLE volunteer brigade!
CBL Cares (the company's volunteer team) sent out over 100 people to help us prepare us for our Boots in the Barn event, and do clean up and minor repairs for our facility. They also had teams providing marketing and fundraising ideas. If this wasn't enough, they also made a donation to our program!
This incredible group was instrumental in our mission to reach out to and engage our community leadership organizations.
THANK YOU TO CBL CARES!
We're excited about our programs that have had incredible successes!
