We are seeking a proffesional landscaper or drainage proffesional to volunteer to assist us in repairing our horse stalls drainage system (10), and other areas around our property. The property is on a slope below sea level, so each time it rains, the horses are exposed to a great deal of water.

This is a critical issue as the water from recent storms comes with increased volume year/year.

Mission Statement

Using the highly esteemed skill of horseback riding to inspire youth, while enriching the whole person through our 4 core areas of growth.
