The Road to Special Olympics – Skowhegan! 🐴💚

Another great group practice is in the books!

Yesterday our riders worked together on brushing and horse care, enjoyed a craft activity, and helped set up our obstacle course before putting their horses through it. It was a great day of learning, teamwork, and building confidence and a relationship with their horses before we bring it to the saddle.

Every practice brings us one step closer to Special Olympics, and we couldn’t be more proud of the effort, determination, and positive attitudes these athletes bring each week.

We’re looking forward to an amazing season ahead and can’t wait to see what this team accomplishes!

Our big group had practice today and they were awesome! 💚

Our riders spent time working through our obstacle course, after setting it up, practicing leading, communication, confidence, and teamwork with their horses. We also squeezed in some fun activities along the way!

We’re excited to welcome some new riders to the team this year and are so looking forward to a great season ahead! ✨

It’s so fun watching this team grow each week as we get closer to Special Olympics! 💚🐴
