Our 4th Annual Haunted Hayrides and Spookfest begins Friday October 4th and is every Friday and Saturday night in October from 7pm to 11pm through November 2nd. We are the only Haunted Hayride in the Richmond area. It is a fun and amazing time for our community and is the main fundraiser for our rescue and sanctuary horses.
We are in need of volunteers to:
Help set up the scare trial (in September)
Work the scare trail on Friday and Saturday nights as scare staff. - This is a fun opportunity for high school students to get their needed volunteer hours for clubs.
Direct traffic on Friday and Saturday nights as well as Saturday for our Daytime Spookfest
Help organize and transport riders over to the load and unload zone.

Mission Statement
We believe equines deserve to retire with dignity and love. However for many horses that is not the case and they are discarded by their owners once they are outside their prime and many end up in the kill pens awaiting slaughter in Mexico or Canada. Ranshaw Ranch often takes some of the worst cases, horses with medical issues or conditions that limit their time here on earth. We bring them home to Shoofly Farm and give them as much love and affection as possible so that however long they have left, they experience only the best in the twilight of their lives. We believe in being open and involved with our community giving visitors and volunteers a chance to take part in these horses healing and we find it often heals the human heart as well.
Description
We are a small family-owned, multi-purpose farm and animal sanctuary in the heart of Virginia. We are active in animal rescue, seeking healing and happiness for members of our community and the animals that call Shoofly home . We began rescuing horses in 2019 with a focus on slaughter-bound horses. We formed Shoofly's non-profit organization Ranshaw Ranch to have a greater reach and impact rescuing horses and acting as a type of hospice place for the ones who were too sick or injured and unable to be adopted.
