Activities include horse demonstrations, a demo by Valley Riding’s therapeutic riders, educational tours, $5.00 pony rides (min age 3, maximum weight 160), raffle, barnyard bingo, refreshments, face painting and much more. The Lake Erie Nature & Science Center and UH Rainbow Babies & Children’s Hospital Critical Care Transport will provide interactive educational experiences.
Valley Riding provides quality English horseback riding instruction and equine-assisted activities to children and adults to enhance awareness and appreciation of horses in a metropolitan setting. This benefit is an opportunity to introduce the horses and ponies and Valley Riding’s programs to the surrounding communities.
