Grow your life skills this summer.
You have an amazing opportunity!
We are partnering with the Wet Mountain Valley Saddle Club to provide lesson scholarships to local youth who are intrigued by and/or love horses, who are interested in growing life skills such as leadership and communication, and to any youth who would otherwise not have an opportunity to learn about our equine partners. The WMVSC generosity allowed over 40 youth students to participate in weekly lessons this past year where we saw immense growth in leadership, confidence, knowledge of horsemanship, responsibility, and the list goes on. If you would like to be notified when the next round of scholarships is available, please sign up below. What can horses teach us?
01 — Communication
To effectively communicate with others, we have to first know what we are trying to communicate. Then we have to speak to them in a way they can understand us.
02 — Leadership
Good leaders have a vision, they know where they are going and are set on making a path to get there. Horses help us practice making decisions and sticking to them.
03 — Consistency
What would we do in world without consistency? How would we know what the expectations were or what would happen if we didn't meet them (like paying our bills?) Would we ever reach our full potential? Horses teach each person, in their own way, how important consistency really is.
04 — Growth
The more you practice anything, the better you will get at it. This program is focused on personal growth as well as growth in horsemanship (we think they kind of go together!) Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable shows you how much you are capable of and helps you gain confidence in yourself and your limits.
