November's Volunteer Spotlight shines on Sandra A, a dedicated Saddle Up! volunteer who has served as a valued Sidewalker and recently expanded her skill set to include leading! Sandra's steady and joyful demeanor is appreciated by riders, instructors, and horses alike. Thank you Sandra for your dedication to Saddle Up!.

Sweet mare Ruby and lovable Ollie are two of our cherished horses at Saddle Up! who would be incredibly grateful for a caring sponsor. Ruby, a gentle 14-year-old Arabian mare, has touched the hearts of many, while Ollie, our spirited 19-year-old Selle Francais, is truly one-of-a-kind—he’s the only one of his breed we’ve ever had here.

Horse sponsorships play such a vital role in supporting our program. For just $1,500 a year, you can join the wonderful group of horse sponsors who commit to offsetting a portion of the annual cost of keeping the hay on the table (or in the stable).

If you feel moved to make a difference in this way as you plan your year-end giving, please call Ken or Amanda at the farm at 615-749-1150. Your support would mean the world to Ruby and Ollie! That nicker you hear means "thank you!"
