CANTER Therapeutic Riding NEEDS VOLUNTEERS
VOLUNTEER TRAINING
at CANTER Equestrian Center, 8:00 AM-1:00 PM
“Help Exceptional Students Ride a Horse”
Could you volunteer a morning each week for a very special cause? CANTER needs horse handlers and side walkers to support our therapeutic riding program for children and adults with disabilities. Previous horse experience is a plus but not necessary. CANTER operates Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings at our Center at 7388 Chief Joseph Drive in Sierra Vista.

The Cochise Area Network of Therapeutic Equestrian Resources (CANTER) is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization that offers therapeutic riding. CANTER's vision is to serve all eligible individuals in Cochise County, using multiple instructors with diverse skills and training methods to safely and effectively meet the specific needs and requirements of its students.
CANTER was founded in 1993 to provide Equine Assisted Activities (EAA) to individuals with disabilities in the Cochise County area. When our program began, horses were brought to a temporary riding facility hosted by a volunteer. In 1998, 17 acres of bare land were donated to CANTER by a stroke patient who was a client of CANTER. Over the next four years, land was cleared, fenced, and a riding arena was established. Stables were erected for the horses; an office, tack room and classroom were added. In 2002, a manufactured home was placed on the property allowing a full time horse steward/caretaker to reside at the facility and care for the horses and grounds. Today, the facility is home to eight specially trained CANTER therapeutic riding horses.
Immensely helpful!! Thank you for this. I am in the midst of this very "search" and you certainly raised some things I hadn't considered.

Show jumping, also known as "stadium jumping", is a part of a group of English riding equestrian events that also includes dressage, everting, hunters, and equitation. Jumping classes are commonly seen at horse shows throughout the world, including the Olympics.

This is very nice blog because information provided here through the article and the pictures are very effective. Tutoring near World Equestrian Center Ocala Because sometimes words cannot explain the things that pictures can and here the words and pictures both are expressing the things in balance.
