HRHR Volunteers for Redwood Acres Fair

This has been a very busy week for the rescue. We started off at the Redwood Acres Fair Wed. passing out information pamphlets and selling raffle tickets for our endurance saddle. We also assisted the Six Rivers Pony Club with their pony rides. The rides didn't go so well due to the fact that we were set up right next to the fire department who was doing a demo with a very loud piece of equipment. The pony's were a little bit spooked by all the noise.

Saturday we had our 3rd Annual Play Day. Thank you Lorraine and Lisa for putting this all together for us. I would also like to thank Heather Snowflamer for volunteering her time as one of the judges. Some of the events included a trotting race, catalog race, walk trot canter, walk trot lead, a beginning obstacle course, and an advanced obstacle course. Each contestant went away with lots of prizes and goody bags for their horses. We had a lot of interest in the event and we might even put on another one in the future as a fund raiser for HRHR.

Sunday we helped out with the Exceptional Rodeo. This was a free event and everyone who attended went home with a T-shirt and a Rope. The kids were given free pony rides and there were several stations set up where they could practice their roping skills.

We also had an information booth set up with before and after pictures of some of the horses we have rescued within HRHR. Angel was also on scene getting lots of attention. Angel is also up for Adoption if anyone is looking to ad a new addition to their pasture.

We raffled off out Timberline Saddle and the winner was Carole Kindrick. Carole was not present to accept the saddle but we will be posting a picture of our winner shortly.

Thanks again everyone who came out and supported HRHR during this very busy week. Next month we will be putting on an adult play day. So get your horses ready and come out and have a little fun.
