Every June, AHEAD With Horses Inc. holds their Annual Children’s Demonstration and Fun Day. This is a day when all of the children in our program can showcase all of the wonders they have accomplished while riding a horse and have their friends and family cheer them on as they receive their Outstanding Achievement Awards. These accomplishments can range from now being able to lift their head, sit, use their hands and arms, move legs, stand, walk, speak or other communication, focus, follow directions, etc. These might seem like simple tasks to you, but to these children and their families, they can be life changing!
In addition to our Children's Demonstration, we also have a BBQ, games, arts & crafts and a Silent Auction.
We will need lots of volunteers to help with set up, clean up, running the game booths and arts & crafts, helping with the silent auction, helping with the bbq, parking, and many other activities. If you and/or any friends or groups you are a part of can sign up for a shift or 2, we would be very grateful. We cannot put on this event all by ourselves, we need the help of all of you! Thank you for helping us out!
If you are able to volunteer, please take a look at our online sign up sheet and put your name down for any slots that you can fill.
