Our young riders set up a fundraiser for the school horses this summer. They made horse treats to sell. Sooo, they took their money and made a trip to Dover. They got Charlie Brown a new halter, brushes and other horse care products. They did this all on there own. They where very proud of their contributions. It is such a pleasure to have such a great generation of young horse women growing up in the barn. Thank you Landra, Sophia, Olivia. Thank you girl's
