THE 2011 SUMMER HORSEMANSHIP CAMP

summer. From 9am to 12 noon, twice a week(or more), we will offer
a combination of hands-on activities and horsemanship in the ring. We
teach in a safe,
relaxed and loving atmosphere with plenty of time to nuzzle and scratch some
soft ears. Our emphasis is on the novice/intermediate rider learning reining
at the walk and trot.
Our instructor, Marcia Evans, has had a 4H program for 40 years, a Special Olympic program for 20 years, as well as individual clients of every ability from all across the state. Our staff is completely volunteer with CITS (Counselors in Training) who are earning their own lesson hours.

NH Association of the Blind Walkathon
Mini Style
Members of Shared Gifts walked last Saturday in support of the NH Association of the Blind and demonstrated what a "seeing eye " Mini would look like in small shoes (so doesn't slip on linoleum of hospitals, etc). Minis are becoming popular in this profession because they live so much longer than dogs and they do all the same things.
