From Our Community

Riding horses makes my back muscles stronger and helps me balance myself better. My favorite part of riding is when I go fast: it’s an awesome feeling. I have lessons once a week, but I wish I could ride every day!”

— Timothy, 19 years old

“Seeing the way my son lights up every time he gets up on the saddle is special. Timothy is blind, so having trained instructors and volunteers who ensure his safety on horseback means a lot to us.”

— Timothy’s mother, Julie
