I have been involved with RVR since 1999 and have had the opportunity to work with all involved: horses, riders, families of participants, volunteers, instructors and board members. After more than 20 years, it is absolutely amazing to me just how much EVERYONE benefits from being involved in the program. ”

I have volunteered at RVR for about ten years, and it is my absolute favorite summer activity. The progress that each rider makes is huge! The therapeutic benefits of horseback riding are proven and wide-ranging. It improves riders' confidence, strength, flexibility, and self-esteem, just to name a few! ”

Our daughter has been involved with RVR for over 20 years. When asked what she does in her free time, the first thing she mentions is horseback riding. She has developed independence, overcome early shyness and fears of trying something new, but that pales when compared to just plain having fun and laughing. She considers several of the volunteers at RVR her friends. ”
