Our Volunteers

What Do Volunteers Do?

    Volunteers are the critical people who keep this program running. Volunteers support riders, facilitate lessons, prepare horses for riders, help care for horses, help keep tack and equipment safe, and help with many other basic and important functions.  
    Every volunteer is encouraged to improve his or her horsemanship and riding skills, help develop activities and games, and to act as representatives of the center and help promote its mission.  
    Volunteers of all ages are encouraged to participate.
Join us in the journey!!
