*CONGRATS!*

Help me congratulate our October Volunteer of the Month- Mary! 🎉🤠

Mary has been a volunteer with us for one year! During this time she has learned so much about barn chores, grooming, and tacking. Her favorite memory so far was getting to participate in the winter exercise program where she got to work with Rein! You can often find her giving some TLC to Rein or snuggling our cat sweetpea! When Mary isn’t at the barn she is often engaging in her other hobby- crocheting!

Mary- we can’t do what we do without you! You are such a special part of our team and bring a smile to everybody’s face! Congratulations!
