SMaRT's unique mountain setting on the property of Snow Mountain Ranch offers beauty and serenity, which itself is therapeutic. Riders work on their skills in the controlled setting of the arena, then venture out for a trail ride. This program runs from June through September. Both English and Western skills are taught, with grooming, tacking and basic horse care. Instructors are certified through the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association.
Volunteers assist individuals with specific needs.
A medical release, signed by the participant's physician, is required prior to riding. Reservations are also required. You can select opportunities that appeal to you or your group, or you can have a program custom-designed for your particular goals. Our chaplain will also coordinate activities with the program department to develop outdoor adventures with a spiritual emphasis. It's a great way to add a spiritual theme.
