Beyond the fun, your support makes a real difference. Positive Strides Center has been changing lives through therapeutic horseback riding for 45 years, and events like this one are what keep our program strong, sustainable, and growing. Every dollar raised goes directly back into the work that matters most — right here in our community.

Come for the hat contest. Stay for the heart.
