Wild Horse Sanctuary
Dear Readers,
I know most of you are too far away to come visit the horses (and me) but you still like to hear about people who are helping wild horses live free -- in safety -- so I thought I'd show you this event I'll be attending soon.
If you visit the sanctuary's website, be sure to check out the opportunities for internships. This could be a dream come true for those of you would love to work with wild horses.
Happy trails, Terri
OPEN HOUSE SCHEDULED FOR WILD HORSE SANCTUARY
Experience the Thrill of Seeing Wild Mustangs Up Close and Personal!
SHINGLETOWN, CA – With magnificent Lassen Peak in the background, the Wild Horse Sanctuary in Shingletown will celebrate its 27th anniversary with an Open House on Saturday,
August 19, 2006 from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Open House festivities include a docent-led walk to view the wild mustangs and burros up close; FREE horse rides for children 10 and under; silent auction; prize drawings featuring a grand prize Wild Horse Sanctuary weekend trail ride; barbecue; cowboy poetry, entertainment; and barn dance. Other returning favorites include demonstrations on horseshoeing, horse grooming, and saddling scheduled throughout the day, plus a question and answer session with a veterinarian.
Highlighting this year’s open house will be author Terri Farley, who will be on hand to sign copies of her latest book, Seven Tears into the Sea, and various titles from her popular Phantom Stallion series.
To help raise funds to care for nearly 300 wild horses and burros that roam the 5,000-acre Wild Horse Sanctuary, guests can bid on several silent auction items. Auction items include trips, gift items, artwork, and a selection of specialty merchandise.
“The Open House is our way of saying thank you to the community that has been so supportive over the years and to share the story of wild horses with visitors in a fun and relaxed atmosphere,” stated Dianne Nelson, Founder, Wild Horse Sanctuary.
A non-profit organization, the Wild Horse Sanctuary has served as a haven for America’s wild horses and burros since 1978. In its location at 5796 Wilson Hill Road near the northern California community of Shingletown (approximately 170 miles northeast of Sacramento), these disappearing symbols of the American West can roam free and live out their natural lives.
For more information and directions, call the Wild Horse Sanctuary at (530) 335-2241 or visit www.wildhorsesanctuary.org.
