Description:
We work with children between the ages of 5 and 17, who have a variety of physical and cognitive disabilities.

Overall Experience
rewarding, fun, everything i could ask for
I'm a student and was looking for a volunteer oportunity with horses. The program is well-run, the horses are happy and welll-trained, and the kids are a pleasure to work with. This is an excellent opportunity for fit volunteers who enjoy the outdoors and working with animals.
