An Open Letter from the Equest Special Riders Volunteers.
Hello, This request comes to you on behalf of persons currently being
assisted by Equest as well as those our organization will help in the
future.
Equest Special Riders, Inc. is a non-profit organization
of trained volunteers who provide therapeutic-recreational horseback
and pony
riding and instruction for persons left physically or mentally dysfunctional
through irregularities of birth, high fevers, disease or trauma from
an accident. A few students are adults; the greatest majority of
the Special Riders are children. Children, who might never have walked,
enjoy a chance to experience the exhilaration of moving freely, mounted
atop a horse or pony. While riders are involved in specialized games
designed to improve coordination, the horses' gait massages their
leg muscles. You need only watch one session to realize how much
riding impacts the self-confidence and well being of the students.
