Circle of Hope serves 20+ participants, ranging in age from 3 to mid-40s, who ride with us on weekends. Our horses, Papa and Lucy, are still going strong as they enter their golden years! As accomplished professionals, they bring our participants (un)bridled joy and enthusiasm that can’t be reined in. And we are very grateful for our many volunteers who donate on average 2-3 hours of their time every week.
We take great pride in the Circle of Hope program. We provide a safe and supportive environment where our participants thrive and succeed. We encourage you to get acquainted with our participants, our volunteers and our horses. Follow us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/CHTRBarnesville) and visit our website (www.chtr.org).
