Dare to Dream Horse Rescue
Saving One Life at a Time!
Horse training continues rain, shine or snow!
January 2012 finds us with 29 horses. Some of them are being greenbroke, while others are too young to ride but are getting work with ground manners. Others are boarding here for their owners to learn how to train them. Many new volunteers are still coming, and we are all getting to know each other. THANK YOU to all our volunteers who come to work with the horses, we couldn't do this without you.
We are very thankful to be able to use our new barn and tack room. It's so nice to be inside when the weather outside is nasty. We're still adding to our facilities, and one more large shelter is being built. Again, THANK YOU to our volunteers, who work so hard and give so much of their time to make our facilities even better.
Our yard is full of bales of hay, some purchased, some donated. Thank you to all who donate hay and bags of feed for the horses. And to everyone who has donated funds to us to help care for the horses.
We are still fundraising for our barn, we still need to put plywood on the ceiling and walls. If you would like to be a part of helping us to be able to finish the inside, please go to our "Ways To Help" page and click Donate. If you have materials that we could use for this, please contact us. Any and all donations are appreciated.
We currently have three fundraisers going.
1... We're asking that you donate your pop and water bottles to help the rescue. You can either take them to the bottle depot and get the funds to us, or just bring us the bottles and we'll take them in.
2... Save your pennies (or any change) and fill a coffee can. Then get it to us and we will sort and wrap them.
3... Our 2012 calendars are here. They feature all the horses currently at the rescue, plus a couple that are in new homes. Cost is 20.00 if picked up or 23.00 if mailed. Contact Brenda to get one.
Our foal Tika is 9 months old, and still growing like a weed. She loves all the activity around here, and is always whinnying for one of the volunteers to come and pet her. Such a little character!
