Project H.O.P.E.’s Horseback Trick-or-Treat

From 1:00PM to 5:00PM

Project H.O.P.E. is ready to saddle up and collect some candy – for a few tricks, of course! All ages are invited to this unique event, where children and their parents will safely visit several candy stations and gather treats after performing a small “trick,” all while riding one of the organization’s volunteer-led horses. Costumes are encouraged but not required and no horseback riding experience is necessary. A $7 donation per person or $20 donation per family is encouraged as this fundraiser will go to help Project H.O.P.E.’s non-profit mission of providing children in need with therapeutic horseback rides.
