PALMYRA, Wis. – Riding with Angels announced their 2nd Annual Open House and Fundraiser!
On Saturday, August 26th, 2023 from 1:00 p.m.- 4:00 p.m. the community is invited to experience all that Riding with Angels has to offer and see the farm in action. Riding with Angels’ mission is twofold. First, Riding with Angels rescues horses in dire situations nursing them back to health and providing a safe environment for them to thrive again. Second, Riding with Angels uses these rescued horses to provide a youth horsemanship program to youth facing adversity or challenges. The youth horsemanship program focuses primarily on youth 7 to 18 who might not otherwise get a chance to experience the healing wonder of working with horses.
The event will have rescue horse spotlights along with horse demonstrations including dressage, liberty, obstacles and jumping. We’ll have a horse drill team performance, roping demonstrations, live music and a silent auction. Children of all ages will enjoy “painting a horse,” kids’ crafts, pony rides and a petting zoo. We’ll also have food and drinks. Event attendees will also be able to talk with some of the young people who have participated in our youth horsemanship program to hear about their experiences.
“It’s been nearly 25 years since we began our journey in Palmyra and we’re thrilled to be celebrating with our community this summer” says Marianne Schulz, Riding with Angels’ Director. It’s with your support that we can continue helping these amazing creatures and provide a youth horsemanship program. In doing so, we provide a place for horses and youth to foster hope and healing.
Riding with Angels’ address is W691 CTH-CI, Palmyra, WI 53156. Check out our website at https://www.ridingwithangelswi.org
