“Giving Others a Leg Up!

Our Volunteers

   Volunteers are the lifeblood of Reins of Hope, from the Board of Directors, to the newsletter editor, to the people helping in the arena. Reins of Hope volunteers are our ambassadors.  Volunteers take leadership roles by finding riders, promoting local business involvement, and recruiting more volunteers. A rider may need up to 3 volunteers.  With three classes a night and up to 4 riders in a class, that’s a lot of volunteers!

   

There are a variety of opportunities to share your time, knowledge and energy with Reins of Hope.  If you are interested in becoming a Reins of Hope Volunteer, contact our Volunteer Coordinator,
