🏇✨ Team Building with a Purpose! ✨🏇
Our Construction Team took a well-deserved break at StirrUp Purpose, a therapeutic horsemanship facility here in Bend. Through the wisdom of horses, they explored how herd dynamics mirror human connections and how our presence shapes relationships. 🐴💡

A huge thank you to Penny and Jeff Campbell for sharing your patience, insight, and your incredible herd. The team left with stronger bonds and fresh insights—ready to build homes and community connections! 🛠️💪

We celebrate and honor veterans every day, but on this Veteran's Day, Central Oregon Daily aired an In Focus piece about our endeavor to Serve Those Who Serve.

Check it out below and let us know what you think!

Veterans returning from war can find the search for peace and purpose to be out of reach. Local organization Stirrup Purpose believes that true healing starts with reconnecting to nature, to animals and to oneself.

Thank you, veterans for you service to our country! We love serving you!
