Last week, we hosted a hardworking team of 6 individuals from Thornton Place Apartments for a work party. This team came ready to complete projects, and went above and beyond to help get some necessary work done around the barn. They weatherproofed our wooden shelters, cut back a good chunk of the ever-creeping blackberry vines, and took care of a substantial amount of weed whacking. If that wasn’t enough, at the very end of their scheduled time, we had a big ask — moving mats to help cushion the hooves of a horse who’d come up footsore. Despite the heat and the fact that it was the end of their day, they stayed to help, and made quick work of a normally arduous task. This group really put the ‘party’ in work party, and were a pleasure to work alongside.
Thank you, Thornton Place volunteers for your time and your willingness to help our horses!
