BEND Therapeutic Riding

We hope you all had a wonderful holiday season 🌲❄️

Sawyer went exploring at Camp Hughes trails last weekend. 🌲 🐴 His brain and confidence benefit from a variety of environments and experiences 🧠 As do ours!

Our horses enjoyed expanding their experiences this weekend in the Traveller’s Day Parade 🦄🎶

Every child matters 🧡

September 30th is Day of Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day. If you’re an Indigenous ally, take this day to learn more about the historical and current realities of Indigenous Peoples 🪶
