BUCK The Film

Tomorrow, July 22nd is the showing of BUCK to benefit the Center! I'm so excited!!! Oscar and Thunder will be arriving at the Essex Cinema around 5:00 to meet movie goers. It's been a great opportunity for us to promote the movie and The Center at the same time. Hope to see everyone there!

On another note...we are gearing up for the 2nd Equine, Arts & Eats Festival September 17 to be held at The Center. This benefit event features visual and performing arts, organic and local food vendors, and of course horse demonstrations and activities all day long.

We are offering vending space to artists, handcrafters, and those in the healing arts field. For more information go to our website www.centerforamericasfirsthorse.org and click Equine, Arts and Eats!

The biggest thrill/joy for me lately has been riding Morado again. After about 5 weeks of consistent time with him I have earned his trust to ride him confidently again. He is happy to work, and doesn't feel like he's really lost that much edge. I probably have though since it's been some time since I've schooled a horse that is as trained as he is. And he's not actually that highly schooled in the big picture, but has a very strong foundation. I am riding him in a bit again, although I do enjoy working on our bridless work.

Our Womens getaway weekend is coming up July 15-17. Should be a lot of fun. Trail riding, lessons, and I'm sure a lot of laughing and relaxing. Campfire at night too! I only have 6 horses that are available to use so if you are interested in coming and bonding with one of my horses, let me know sooner than later. Space for incoming horses is also limited to about 6-8. Camping space is not limited though. We have plenty of room for tents and parking.

Yard sale this weekend to benefit The Center. Thanks to Janis and Glenn for donating so much really nice stuff! Will be hauling more goods over so we should have a lot of treasures .
