A huge crowd turned out at the Empty Saddle Club Saturday, April 24, 2010, for a day in the country, compliments of Ride To Fly, the all-volunteer non profit therapeutic horseback riding organization that works with its clients here in Portuguese Bend, at the corral at Five Points. If you went, they they you for your support. If you did not attend, here's what you missed:
Pony rides, accompanied by
Ride-To-Fly volunteers in red T-Shirts
Games, run by Ride-To-Fly volunteers
Some players needed help.
Others didn't.
Crafts...decorating horseshoes with beads, also making bracelets and necklaces, and face painting...all run by Ride-To-Fly volunteers
Country and Western music and dancing, and food
Precision horseback riding by the Happy Hoofers
Some friendly farm animals to pet...not to mention a few friendly dogs.
AND...be sure to mark your calendar for the other event that supports horses and kids, coming up soon. The annual Portuguese Bend Pony Club pancake breakfast is scheduled for May 8 from 8 to 11 p.m. at 2 West Pomegranate Road. Just $7 buys a chance to eat a yummy breakfast and meet your neighbors. Call 310-377-6058 and tell them you'd like to reserve a spot.
