Thank you to everyone who joined us for our fun-filled day of delicious pancakes and hot chocolate! We had a wonderful time visiting with Santa and Mrs. Claus, enjoying tasty food, making festive crafts, taking photos with Santa, petting animals in the barn, going on a hayride, bouncing in the bounce house, listening to the reading of the Christmas story, meeting Santa's "reindeer," and checking out the College Mound Firetruck! It was a fantastic day, and we look forward to doing it again in 2025!
We are honored to congratulate the Veterans, their spouses, and children who have completed the Horses and Heroes Program—a 12 to 15-week initiative funded by the Texas Veterans Commission. Those interested in participating in this program, which offers clinical counseling that incorporates horses, are encouraged to reach out. There are spots available for new participants in 2025!
Our 2024 campers experienced joyful moments filled with fun, laughter, and love through horse-related adventures and shared faith journeys. At Horse Camp, we emphasize values like kindness and perseverance while ensuring fellowship and spiritual growth. With daily devotionals and prayer time, campers reflect on their experiences and see God's handiwork in every activity. Our two weeks of summer camp were filled with love, laughter, and plenty of horsing around, all grounded in Christian faith and community joy.
Honored to congratulate our Veterans, Spouses and their children who completed our Horses and Heroes Program...a 12-15 week program funded by the Texas Veterans Commission. If you are interested in participating in this program which provides Clinical Counseling Incorporating Equines, please let us know. We have a spot for you as well!

2019 Ride for the Roses
Saturday,. May 4, 2019
Our 2019 'Ride for the Roses' fundraiser was held Saturday, May 4th at the Kaufman County Fairgrounds just south of Kaufman. The weather was beautiful, the venue was perfect, and our incredible supporters were nothing short of amazing.
The evening began with our opening ceremony that included a dove release by Jana Ewing Syvrud and her family, in honor of Jacob Eli, and the introduction of our incredible riders. Skippy, Fredrica & Sugar, just a few of the incredible horses that give so much of themselves to us and our program, joined them as well.
We then moved inside where we enjoyed an amazing dinner, The Kentucky Derby live streamed on the big screen, the silent and live auctions and lots of good fellowship, stories and laughter.
This was our most successful fundraiser to date, and we look forward to doing it again in 2020!
