have ridden and been around horses for most of my life. I have a wonderful
husband, Joe, who helps me and the program out a lot, and I also have four
"children"... a horse, 2 dogs, and a cat.
I first heard about Equine Assisted Therapy from an article in The Current
newspaper in March 2004. I called Ginni up as soon as I read the article, and
signed up for the first volunteer training. I started coming to EAT to work
with the horses, and fell in love with the riders and I have never left. I started
working on my NARHA instructor certification in November of 2004, and
finished in April of 2005. I really love working with both the riders and the
volunteers. It is so nice to work with such a wonderful group of people that
truly care. I really feel that this program is my calling in life. Everyday that I
go home from a long day of hard work I feel truly blessed and lucky to be
working with such a great program.
