We are looking for volunteers with weekday and evening availability to assist our therapeutic riding students during their lessons. We are experiencing tremendous growth in our programming and most of our students cannot ride without the assistance of volunteers. We train you to side walk (assist the rider) and lead (assist the horse) during the lesson, depending on your area of interest.
