EVENT SIGN-UP CONTACT: SHYAN INGRAO

The Barrel Race is one of the largest fundraisers Horses with Heart hosts each year. We rely on support from the community and many volunteers to insure the event is successful. Proceeds raised are used to support our Therapeutic Riding program for individuals with special needs, veterans, first responders, and our senior community.

We encourage you to attend our Barrel Race. We have a beautiful and heart warming Grand Entry at 10:15, that includes an antique tractor pulling a hay wagon carrying our special needs riders and instructors. Also, we will have a veteran from each branch of the military on horseback. Come out to see the talented racers and the amazing horses they ride. Bid on our wonderful Silent Auction items and purchase raffle tickets. It is really a fun and exciting day.

For inquiries regarding our event please contact Bonnie Moreau, event chair. For event sign-up and inquiry please contact Shyan Ingrao.

Olsen’s Grain is a big supporter of Horses with Heart and our Race. They provide the arena, registration, announcer, advertising, and so much more. When you have feed store needs, please shop at Olsen’s and thank them for their support.
