We had a super fun time at our Overnight Camp this weekend! The girls learned all about everything needed to take care of a horse and had a blast riding everyday!
Hope to see everyone again next year! 🤗

We had so much fun at our first show this year!! All of the girls did amazing! They were given the chance to show off the skills they’ve been developing in their lessons for all their friends and family!
Thank you so much to all of our volunteers that came out to help! Without you it would not have been possible to have the show! And thanks to Sunrise North Therapeutic riding for letting us use their horses so more girls could participate!
We hope to get the chance to hold another show soon!
