Work that needs to be done
Fundraising - Grant writing
Cleaning - barn / clinic / getting the word out about the upcoming programs and events / helping with activities
Volunteers Wanted!
Volunteers welcome to help with horse care, cleaning, programs, etc. at ESS. Join the wonderful volunteers who help make things happen for our horses, our kids and our programs! Help is needed in all areas, including office work. Lots of outdoor work, indoor work, horse work, special events - if you have a talent or skill to share, we most likely need it! No horse experience necessary. We will teach you how to scoop poop, brush horses, and everything in between. E-mail or stop out. We mostly need help on our open days, which are Wednesdays and Saturdays Oct. through April, and Wednesdays and weekends May through Sept.
If you are interested in assisting with the equine assisted activities with disabled persons, volunteers are needed on Tuesdays for that program. Call for details.
