The second annual Golf Tournament gave many area golfers an opportunity to play
their favorite sport, while raising money to benefit Therapeutic Horsemanship.
Prizes were given for the longest drive and closest to the pin. A continental breakfast and lunch
were included.

We would like to extend a huge thank you to Vince Slattery, TH volunteer, for organizing this fun event.

A unique afternoon of fun and excitement for the entire family. Activities included the polo match itself - a high-speed cross between croquet and hockey on horseback - food and snack vendors and a family area with face painting, pony rides and a clown.The polo match was fully hosted with a play-by-play that included explanations and information about the game of polo as it unfolded on the field. Plus, all attendees took part in the traditional half-time "stomping of the divots" and a riding exhibition by some of the Therapeutic Horsemanship riders was given.

Happy Birthday Horses

2010 Horse Birthday Party - October 2nd - October 16th

You may or may not know that many people celebrate their horse's birthday on January 1st each year. We celebrate our herd's birthday each year with a horse birthday week. It begins two weeks before the Horse-A-Thon and ends on the day of the Horse-A-Thon during lunch. We will sing happy birthday and enjoy cake and punch. Help us celebrate by purchasing a gift for your favorite horse. You will find a list of needed items for each horse by visiting our equine page and clicking on the horse you choose, or you can see our full horse birthday wish list by clicking here. You may bring your gift and drop it in the box outside the administration office. Don't forget to fill out a gift form so we know who the gift is from.
