“Volunteering at THS has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Not only have I been able to rekindle my love of horses, but I’ve been able to share that love with so many of the awesome volunteers here. The privilege of spending time with such empathic animals has always brightened my mood. THS is one of my favorite places to be and I always look forward to my time there!”
“THS has been an amazing volunteer experience. The staff is dedicated to the care of their horses and spends valuable time training the volunteers to do the same. Whether I amunloading bales of hay, mucking stalls, cleaning run in sheds or grooming and caring for these beautiful horses, every minute is rewarding and gratifying. I have said from the start that THS does more for me than I do for them. It is truly a spiritual experience! These horses have captured my heart!”
“My time at THS has become part of my weekly routine and something I look forward to. I’ve made some great friends – human and horses.”
