High Hopes Therapeutic Riding Announces Two Open House Events

On Saturday, January 30 and again on Saturday March 13, the High Hopes Therapeutic Riding Center in Old Lyme, CT will host an open house from 1 to 3pm and we sincerely hope you can join us.  During your visit you can tour the barn, meet some horses, watch a therapeutic riding class in session, ask questions of the High Hopes program staff and learn more about one of this country’s premier therapeutic riding programs.  Delicious refreshments, including homemade chili and brownies, will be available.  Our Open Houses are informal and your visit can be as long or short as your own schedule allows.  Even if you are a High Hopes regular volunteer or participant, the afternoon promises to be informative and eye opening.  This is also a great opportunity to bring a friend or neighbor to High Hopes and share your volunteer or participant experience with them first hand.
