LightHouse Youth Program Presents Giant Steps Horseback Riding
Please join the LightHouse Youth Program on September 28 for an adventurous day of horseback riding with our friends at the Giant Steps Therapeutic Equestrian Center. If you’re not familiar with Giant Steps, they are located in a beautiful rural setting on a working horse ranch just north of San Francisco. Giant Steps offers life-changing experiences to people of all ages with a wide range of disabilities. Their mission is to enrich and change the lives of children and adults with disabilities through the extraordinary benefits of therapeutic riding and related equine-assisted activities.
We will meet at the LightHouse and drive to their location in Petaluma.
Space is limited to eight participants. If you would like more information, or to RSVP for this event, please contact Jamey Gump, Youth Services Coordinator, at (415) 694-7372 or by email at jgump@lighthouse-sf.org.
