I've decided on our next fundraiser. I'd hoped to do a playday but am struggling to find an arena so I'll keep working on that. If you know of anyone that would be willing let us use their arena, please let me know!
But until then, I want to do a trail ride! So, mark your calendars for...Sunday, August 24th. The time is still TBD but it'll start in the morning.
I'll need to ride the route and do a lot of prep work but hopefully if we start advertising now, we'll get plenty of people. The cost is $10 and there will be a meal included. Proceeds will go to pay for the winter hay. I'm also figuring on bringing other items for sale including horse shoe art, horse shoe nail crosses, horse hair keychain rings, up-cycled grain bags (they work awesome for all kinds of things), and a few other items that have been generously donated.
The Sanctuary horses will also be represented as I'll ride either Chaos or Maverick. I'm debating on bringing the ponies along just for kicks. Who doesn't like a pony??!?!
What: Borderlands Trail Ride
Where: near Larchwood, IA (in a conservation area so all grass and NO gravel)
When: Sunday, August 24th
Time: TBD (but it'll start in the morning)
Why: To raise funds for the winter supply of hay for the Sanctuary horses
Cost: $10 and includes a meal
(If you would like to donate items or money towards the meal, it would help immensely).
Now the very hard part....advertising. I am in desperate need of help getting the word out for the trail ride. So please share with everyone far and wide. The more people that attend, the more money we can raise to help offset the cost of hay for this winter.
