Welcome Valla !
Valla is an exciting new addition to our herd of twelve hardworking horses. Born in 2009, Valla is has a sweet, inquisitive nature with a feisty side just to keep life interesting. Valla is new to therapeutic training, but she seems keen to learn and try new things. It won’t be long before she joins our regular rotation of horses in the ring. A big VTRA welcome to our newest, Norwegian Fjord!

Volunteer Update
VTRA would like to extend a warm welcome back to all of our returning volunteers, and a warm welcome to the 26 new volunteers that have joined our team this fall. We hope that you all enjoyed your well-deserved summer break! This year, we started our program two weeks earlier than usual to try something different with our scheduling. We would appreciate any feedback you have in regards to the earlier start date: the good, the bad and the ugly!

We bought a new horse over the summer! Cherry Lane is a Gypsy Vanner cross, and was purchased from Washington State.
Our instructors Liz and Kyrie spent a long time looking for a new addition to the herd: we needed a horse that was tall and wide enough to carry some of our taller riders. As we all know, it takes very special horses to be successful in our program. They have to be calm, gentle and patient.
