Ways to help |
Instructor SupportIn our after school and weekend programs, we need volunteers to help our teachers attend the needs of our students and make sure they and our horses are safe.Riding Program VolunteerWe receive a high frequency of interest regarding our Riding Program. To volunteer in that specific program, you must have past experience working with horses. This includes knowledge of haltering, grooming, hand walking, tacking and bathing so that you may assist our students in this area or work independently on non-program days.Project DaysWe host project days to help keep our barn and property in top condition.Skill Based VolunteersWe are always interested in individuals volunteering their special skills to help support our organization and Los Angeles girls. |
