Events
From springtime tack sales to holiday gatherings, our YEAR-ROUND EVENTS celebrate students, horses,
and community.
Please join us for one or all!
This annual fundraiser happens in early spring, we sell extra tack and equipment in the barn that we are not using. This event is open to the public and usually takes place in our loft above the barn! All proceeds from this event go to program needs. All of our Instructors are certified PATH International Instructors and are completing PATH Approved Instructor Training Courses which include topics such as human behavior, psychology, anatomy, disability instruction, facilities and equipment, tack and special equipment, the therapy horse, lesson plans, mounting, dismounting, volunteer management, teaching techniques, and administration.
The 2022 Tack Sale will be March 5th & 6th!

Our Holiday Celebration is a two part event- Early December we invite everyone to come out and help decorate the farm. We hang wreaths and bows, stockings for each horse, and set up a tree filled with decorations made by our riders. The second part of this event is an afternoon filled with food, fun, and fellowship. We welcome new friends to tour the farm and meet the horses. We also like to recognize the 300+ volunteers who keep HORSEPOWER going throughout the year. This annual celebration awards those who give so generously of their time and financial support, as well as welcoming new people to our family.
The 2022 Holiday Celebration is on December 10th
