Here’s yet another really great place to serve and earn civic engagement hours:
Sunshine Horses
From their webpage:
Many of our horses are retired Standardbred racehorses, but we also welcome horses of other breeds into our program. Most of the retired Standardbreds come to us because they lacked the desire or skill to be successful on the track. Occasionally they have just become too old to race, or have an injury that prohibits further racing. Many of the horses are used to being driven, and adapt well to light carts and carriages. Most of them readily learn to accept a saddle and rider. We work with them to help them accept their new lives, and try our best to match each one’s unique qualities to the needs of a potential adopter.
So many opportunities….so little time!
