Rachel has a very special bond with her horse leader, Nancy Young. The two of them have lots of little conversationsand as a mom, it is wonderful to see a person take such positive interest in my child. Nancy really takes special care to make Rachel feel special. All the new volunteers look to the experienced volunteers for guidance in working with the kids, and it is very much appreciated as a parent to see how much all the volunteers truly love their work at HORSEPOWER.
Rachel has mastered a sitting trot and is excelling at a posting trot. She is doing very well with independently steering her horse and spend the majority of some lessons off lead. She currently rides Brandy.

There are no words to truly explain how important horse riding has been to Anna. She enjoys having the same volunteers each session. The kids really do get attached to the adults who work with them and those adults become part of their discussions at home and part of their lives! Nick goes above and beyond for Anna. He even has braiding skills! We appreciate the encouragement the volunteers have given Anna over the years. Thank You! Anna has mastered the sitting trot and is working on a posting trot. She has truly mastered steering her horse independently and spends the majority of her lessons off lead. She currently rides Clipper. |

Tara & Kyle Lawrence, Parents of Kathryn, Rider at HORSEPOWER, 2012 |
We are so thankful for this program and all the staff and volunteers at HORSEPOWER, who gives their time to make this possible. We are also thankful to all the people and companies who donate money to HORSEPOWER. Kathryn is always very excited about her Monday riding session. She LOVES being on the horse and is all smiles for those 45 minutes when she is riding. We cannot thank everyone involved enough for helping bring such JOY to Kathryn. She is improving at "steering" the hose and she also 2 points well! She is currently riding Bandido. |

It is hard to imagine Addie's life without HORSEPOWER. I believe this is at least year 12 but would love to know for sure:). Thank you for ALWAYS being there for Addie. Thank you for always encouraging her and knowing what is best. She ADORES you all and I know that HORSEPOWER will always be a part of her life. Addie is improving her TROT! At least that is what she says:) I know there must be lost more because you guys would not allow her to trot is she was not ready.

I would like to thank the wonderful staff and volunteers for the MANY long, tiring and sometimes thankless hours that they put in each and every day at HORSEPOWER. This allows us, as clients, to have a facility that gives us a chance not to give up. I was at the point (toxic chemical exposture) results that I was ready to give up. But...each of you knew so much more! I am so thankful that I was offered such an opportunity and facility to help begin a recovery. I may never be 100%, but you have given me a purpose to go on and a reason to believe.
Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas but most of all. God Bless each of you for coming into my life!
