Thank you, murraychevrolet, for once again stepping up as our Title Sponsor and helping us make Ride4Dreams happen!

Founded in 1976, the Lethbridge Therapeutic Riding Association (LTRA) is a registered charity dedicated to discovery, inclusion, and learning through horses. Through therapeutic riding, adaptive riding, equine-assisted wellness, inclusive camps, outreach, and community partnerships, LTRA helps people of all ages and abilities experience connection, confidence, independence, and healing through the power of horses. LTRA is committed to ensuring that everyone who can benefit from horses has access to these life-changing opportunities. Adaptive equipment, accessible facilities, sliding-scale subsidies, community fundraising, and the dedication of volunteers all help make its programs possible. Proudly rooted in Southern Alberta for 50 years, LTRA continues to build a stronger and more inclusive community—one ride at a time.

Ride. Connect. Give Back. Be part of something bigger.

Pepper and Silver had the best time visiting with some new friends during today’s Horses in the Window visit🐴💚

The beautiful weather made it the perfect day to soak up some sunshine, and plenty of attention from every resident who stopped by to say hello!

From gentle pats to big smiles, these visits remind us just how special the connection between horses and people can be.

Room to Roam. Built for Horses. 🐴

These aren't just LTRA's lesson horses — they're partners. We entrust them with our most fragile riders, and they show up with patience, gentleness, and heart every single day.

While many lesson programs keep horses in small pens, we believe in horses being horses. Our program herd lives together 24/7 — moving, grazing, and thriving as a group, the way horses are meant to live.

One of the ways we say thank you? Almost 20 acres of pasture wrapping around our property, dedicated entirely to them. When they're not changing lives in the arena, they're out here doing exactly what you see in this photo.

Add in regular veterinary care, consistent farrier work, and no shortage of love from everyone they meet, and you get a herd that's healthy, happy, and ready to give their best to every rider.

RIDE4DREAMS IS BACK—AND THIS YEAR IS EXTRA SPECIAL!

Join us September 11 & 12 for the 43rd Annual Joanne Perlich Ride4Dreams as we celebrate 50 years of the Lethbridge Therapeutic Riding Association and the community that has kept this dream moving forward since 1976.

ONE FUNDRAISER. TWO UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES. ONE INCREDIBLE CAUSE.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the 2026 Drive4Dreams Charity Golf Tournament such a huge success!

We were incredibly fortunate to have perfect weather for a beautiful day of golf, community, and support for a cause that means so much to us. Preliminary estimates indicate that this year’s tournament raised close to $50,000, with net proceeds of almost $40,000!

To our Sponsors, Supporters, Volunteers, and Planning Task Force Members: thank you!!! This event only happens because of the generosity, time, energy, and heart that so many people put into it.

LTRA is busier than ever and it is your support that allows us to continue expanding our programs, maintaining a healthy and happy herd, and investing in the infrastructure needed to provide therapeutic riding and equine-assisted wellness services in our community.

We truly could not do this without you. We are feeling overwhelming gratitude for everyone who came together to make this year’s Drive4Dreams such a memorable and meaningful day.
