Last week, we had the joy of hosting our Blossoms & Bridles Horse Show at MARE. 🌸🐴

All week long, our riders had the opportunity to show what they have been working toward, and they truly did not disappoint. Every ride reflected hard work, courage, confidence, and the beautiful connection between horse and rider.

We are so proud of each rider who showed up, gave their best, and made this week so special. ❤️

A huge thank you to Prentice Ag for sponsoring the ribbons that brought smiles to every rider.

Memorial Day holds a special place in our hearts at MARE. 🇺🇸🐴

Through our veterans programs and the relationships we have built with veterans, we have had the honor of hearing stories of courage, sacrifice, and service that we will never forget.

Today, we pause with gratitude as we remember the brave men and women who gave their lives for our country and the freedoms we enjoy every day.

From all of us at MARE Riding Center, thank you and we remember. ❤️

The story of Team Reina is a beautiful reminder that hope shows up in many ways at MARE. 🐴💙

Sometimes it looks like riding. Sometimes it looks like volunteering. Sometimes it looks like healing, connection, purpose, and finding a place that feels like family.

Hope on Horseback is about sharing the stories that make MARE so special, from our riders and families to our volunteers, horses, and community.

This May, we are raising $75,000 to support client financial aid, horse care, and priority programs at MARE.

You can participate by telling your MARE story, sharing a MARE story, or making a donation.

Visit www.mareridingcenter.com/hopeonhorseback to get involved.

Meet Team Bennett & Sammy. 🐴💙

Bennett has been riding at MARE for almost 8 years. When he first started, he was completely nonverbal. Today, he is a chatterbox who will happily talk your ear off about trains.

His little brother, Sammy, is now MARE’s youngest rider, making this mission even more special for their family.

This is what Hope on Horseback is all about. It is about the riders, families, horses, volunteers, and moments that remind us why this program matters.

This May, we are raising $75,000 to support client financial aid, horse care, and priority programs at MARE.

You can participate by telling your MARE story, sharing a MARE story, or making a donation.

Support Team Bennett & Sammy and help us continue creating hope on horseback. Visit www.mareridingcenter.com/hopeonhorseback or send us a DM to get involved.

Yesterday’s Volunteer Lunch was a small way to celebrate the people who make such a big impact at MARE. 🐴❤️

Rain or shine, our volunteers show up with willing hands, full hearts, and a love for this mission.

Each year, our volunteers give more than 10,000 hours to MARE. Those hours are poured into caring for our horses, supporting our riders, helping with lessons, and keeping our programs moving forward.

To everyone who joined us for our Volunteer Lunch, and to every volunteer who gives their time to MARE, thank you. We are so grateful for you.

Interested in volunteering? Send us a DM or visit www.mareridingcenter.com/volunteer-application

Can we take a moment for the people walking beside our riders? 🐴💛

Our side walkers and volunteers are a huge part of what makes MARE possible. From helping lessons run smoothly to walking alongside riders in the arena, they play an important role in creating a safe and steady experience for everyone involved.

We truly could not do what we do without them.

If you have ever thought about volunteering with MARE, we would love to connect with you.

Send us a DM to learn more. 💛
