Golfers, Teams & Sponsors Wanted!

The 2026 Drive4Dreams Charity Golf Tournament is just over two weeks away, which means it is officially time to stop “thinking about it” and start getting your team together.

Join us Monday, June 15th at Henderson Lake Golf Club for a great day on the course in support of the Lethbridge Therapeutic Riding Association.

Whether you are a serious golfer, a once-a-year tournament player, or someone who considers “finding the ball” a key part of the sport, this is a great way to spend the day while supporting an important cause!

Funds raised through Drive4Dreams help ensure LTRA’s therapeutic riding and equine wellness services remain accessible for individuals and families across Southern Alberta.

Our first Horses in the Park visit of the year was a special one 🐴🤍

During this outing, we brought along Silver and Ranger — the two newest members of our LTRA herd, who handled their first public outing incredibly well! They were calm, patient, and welcoming, offering everyone who stopped by to say hello a positive and gentle experience. We couldn’t be more proud of them!

Moments like these remind us how powerful the healing presence of horses can be, and we are so grateful to walk alongside our amazing community partners in sharing that connection with others.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in making today possible, and to all of the wonderful people who came over to visit with the horses. We loved seeing so many smiles and meaningful interactions throughout the afternoon! ☀️
