It's a Dream Come True

Camp Venture's brand new Therapeutic Equestrian Center on Fernald Road in Stony Point is operating its indoor riding instruction and therapy programs for children and adults with developmental disabilities at this time. Arena_1

Taking a quiet walk through the arena brings a sense of how grand this facility really is and what lies ahead for the future of the people who will train and ride here. Upon entering a beautiful lobby where the Giving Tree is placed on the wall, you can see into the staff office, view the horse stalls, and look into the arena. A stairway leads up into
the viewing area that overlooks the entire arena and will easily seat 50 – 100 people, when needed.

The work doesn't end when the dream comes true and that's why we want everyone to continue to be a part of this new facility while it's in the growing stages. These are ways that you can continue to take part in the new program:

1) Place a banner inside the new arena; Businesses and friends now have the chance to advertise on a full color imprint, 3" x 4" 13oz. banner for the arena wall. The annual cost is $350 - that includes the initial manufacturing cost.

In addition to the fact that large numbers of people are riding and visiting the facility each month, you have Arena_2 the added benefit of helping Camp Venture by contributing to Venture Foundation.

2) Purchase an engraved leaf - The Giving Tree at Venture's new Equestrian Center;

The GIVING TREE in the lobby of the Equestrian Center has hundreds of engraved leaves of various colors in place. It is designed to acknowledge the generosity of businesses, families and friends who support the equestrian center and the people at Camp Venture.

With a donation of $100 or more, you can order an engraved "leaf" to be placed
on the Giving Tree. Each "leaf" has four lines for inscription.
