We at Colby’s Army care about all living things. Truly care. If you care too then you can become a soldier in our "army". Colby's Army offers Therapeutic Riding and Equine Assisted Learning on-site in Ashland City as well as support for those in West Nashville who are experiencing homelessness. Ultimately, our mission is to help people with life challenges through outreach and interactions with animals and nature. We'd love to have you join us! We're looking for 1-2 social media professionals to help with our social media by creating at least 1 post per week. After gathering some video content at our location, we anticipate that these posts can be perfected remotely. Some prompts will be provided but it would be great if you wanted to develop new ideas for what to post on your own! A majority of these posts will include short videos and we hope to create a 3-4-minute promotional video as well. Experience with Patreon would be a major bonus! Please check out our social media to get a feel for our content: @ColbysArmyInc on Facebook and Instagram Must love horses and the outdoors! Please tell us a little bit about yourself in your application comment.

Ultimately, our mission is to help people with life challenges through outreach and interactions with animals and nature. We'd love to have you join us! Lesson Assistants and Participant Support volunteers work directly with our lesson participants in mounted and unmounted activities. Some lessons are in our garden or other areas of our farm, and some involve horses. Working with our participants can be the most rewarding thing you will do here at our learning center! Lesson Assistants will be working alongside the PATH-certified instructor to take care of random needs like moving a cone out of the way, or running to the barn to grab fly spray. As Participant Support you’d be walking alongside our horse and rider to sure they’re staying balanced or providing support during unmounted activities. Volunteers will need to complete horse handling training, leader and sidewalker training, or our non-equine general lesson assistant training. Our 50-minute lesson times are set according to the participants’ schedules and may be adjusted if needed due to weather. To schedule time for training, please reach out with your availability and we’ll make it happen!
