CARD’s therapeutic riding programs have a direct and positive impact on a disabled rider’s self-esteem, independence, balance and ability to communicate and to walk. CARD is a place that looks at people’s abilities and helps them know what they can do.
Please join us for a magical moment in time at a special benefit for CARD on September 18, 2008. The day includes wine and hors d’oeuvres, a gourmet luncheon, silent auction, the music of classical guitarist Jo Anne Tudor, and presentations by CARD riders and Dax Adams, former CARD rider and ParaOlympic equestrian.
