Lesson volunteers will be able to help aid our students during their lessons and build long lasting connections that make a difference.
We will provided training and experience needed to help around the barn and with lessons.

Volunteers must be at least 14 years of age and physically able to help out around the barn and 14 years of age to help out in the lessons. While experience with horses is a plus, we will give all the instruction you need. If you can pitch in a couple of hours a day every week or two, that would be great. We would love to have your help.

We will provide you with a fun and enriching opportunity to become a part of the community and make a difference in someone's life.
