Our annual FOAL DEDICATION & BONDFIRE is Oct 3rd, 2024 at 7:00 in the evening. Come enjoy a stroll through the pasture as we thank God for this year’s colt crop and pray a blessing over them. Then sit back and relax as we make s’mores over a bondfire! Please bring your own drinks and a lawn chair. Let us know if you plan on coming so that we get enough s’mores for everyone! – This year Jacki has questions ready for anyone who would like to participate in a game of horse trivia!
Every spring, from the beginning of April to the end of June, we have a horse program for the youth at Heartland Boys Home. (Originally, we started this program for the girl’s at YRTC. We successfully ran the program for 8 years, until YRTC in Geneva, was shut down.) Youth come out 3 times a week and work with our yearlings. They do groundwork with them and teach them to do all kinds of obstacles. The program also includes classroom work, and lots of education about horses. Another important aspect of this program, is for the youth to recognize and journal about the life lessons they are learning. When the program is finished, we always have a demonstration where the youth share about what they have learned, and they get a chance to show everyone what they have taught the horses! Anyone is welcome to come and watch and support these youth! 2024 marks our 11th year.
