Meet our horses

The horses at TRC are a very special collection of equines. Many spent their younger years as performance horses in a variety of disciplines, from jumping to barrel racing, dressage to trail, even a parade horse. They have come from all over the country for their new "jobs." Today they are proud and happy to serve as companions and partners for the riders at the Therapeutic Riding Center.

The cost of boarding, feeding and caring for our horses averages approximately $1,100 per month, per horse. This amount does not include any unscheduled or emergency veterinarian visits or medical care. Our program cannot function without our horses. If you would like to fully or partially sponsor one (or more) of our horses, please view their profiles and donate today!

Our volunteers are trained under the direct guidance of a PATH-certified instructor. TRC has been blessed with many volunteers of all ages. They serve TRC in a variety of tasks. Some volunteers assist with grooming the horses, cleaning tack, stalls, and the arena, and others serve as side-walkers and horse leaders. No matter the task, our volunteers have consistently provided us with the love and support needed to serve our students and our horses.
