Veterans Art and Farm Therapy is planning a Farm Mud Run fundraising festival held on April 29, 2017. The 5k run consists of an afternoon of fun for families including a petting zoo, pony rides, vendors, raffles, music and of course, lots of running in the mud. We are expecting around 800 participates.
We need volunteers to build obstacles, make stage area, outdoor showers, clear land and help organize venders.
All volunteers receive a free pass to the Farm Mud Run on April 29, 2017. We also provide advertising for companies participating by naming the obstacle after the company.
This is a family friendly event and helps disabled veterans enjoy theraputic farm activities.

Veterans Art & Farm Therapy allows people to go outside, interact with other veterans and experience the joys of nature. Giving veterans structure at a therapeutic facility yet the freedom to explore the beauty of a farm and its natural environment releases pent-up negative emotions opening the way for positive emotional healing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NNixZqUbo8
