Riding Lessons:

Group riding sessions occur between April and November. Private lessons can also be scheduled during this time.
(19)

We are an equestrian center dedicated to pleasing God, making disciples, and sharing Christ through horse riding lessons, clinics, volunteering, fellowship and mentoring, encircling all in prayer. All instructors are qualified and will customize each session based on each rider's skill and experience level. New students will receive an evaluation lesson to determine appropriate class placement and

give safety instructions to help each rider strive towards their equestrian goals. Clinics:

Each of our clinics are taught by CHA certified or other qualified instructors and are sure to be challenging to riders of any skill or experience level. Throughout the clinic, whether it is one day or more, participants will enjoy activities such as: Horseback riding, General horsemanship care, Crafts, Games, and more! As students participate in clinics and lessons, they will be challenged to grow in their horsemanship abilities as they learn Biblical truths that apply to their personal walk with God.

☀️Happy August everyone!☀️
As some may have noticed, we have duct tape holding together several of our boots that we keep for kids to use. We are asking for donations for kids boots specifically sizes 1-3.
Some boots have been added to the Amazon wish list, but any boots with a smooth sole and a small heel make perfect riding boots!

Providing boots and helmets to borrow is a great way for us to make riding more accessible to families and we could not do it without the community!
Thank you for all your support!🩷🤍

Attention All! Tomorrow is our fundraiser at a Growlers game.

***We have 26 tickets sold and we need to hit 75. 49 more tickets to go! Let’s pack the growlers stadium with our True Vine Family!***

Some really cool highlights during the night:

1. Such a fun activity to enjoy with family watching a baseball game… but if you are not a baseball fan the Growlers games have such a fun atmosphere and a lot of things going on during the game.

2. There will be a miracle minute where volunteers from True Vine and some staff will run around with buckets collecting cash/ change.

3. You get a hat with the purchase of your ticket! Make sure you stop at the guest services for your awesome growlers hat!

4. Each night they have a theme and June 14 is Faith Night! How cool that we can be a part of that! Also, it is Rivalry weekend!

5. You can take a picture with the awesome Growler sign!

6. Best of all… if you come to the game you get to see Rob Zantello (our executive director) throw the ceremonial first pitch! Can’t beat that!

I hope you will join in on the fun and buy tickets for you and your family and friends. Please pass the word around.

Let’s make summer memories together!

Happy Summer!!!
As many of you know, we are beginning summer clinics next week! Two of the items that we use a LOT are snacks and fly spray! If you are looking to donate in a small way that makes a huge impact this is the way to go! We are happy to accept any snacks and brands of fly spray, but I have attached an amazon wish list that includes some of our favorites.
Fly spray is very important to keep our horses happy and our riders safe this summer. It is also important that we can provide snacks and drinks to our students and volunteers, especially in the heat of the day.
Thank you so much we could not do this without the support of many!
