If animals make you feel warm and fuzzy, this is the place for you. Surround yourself with gentle horses, snuggly kitties and happy kids. Project RIDE is where people with disabilities can enjoy freedom, achievement, and JOY on horseback -- and you can help make it happen. No experience or special abilities needed - we'll teach you everything you need to know! One quick training to work with the riders, or a more in-depth training if you'd prefer to work with the horses. Flexible scheduling six days a week, year-round in a beautiful indoor riding arena.
