Central Kentucky Riding for Hope (CKRH) and Easter Seals Cardinal Hill will join forces to offer the first ever Bluegrass HorseAbility, a summer day program aimed at providing fun and educational opportunities for children with special needs, it was announced Monday. The nine-week program will be held June 5 to Aug. 4 at CKRH, the center providing equine-assisted therapies and activities located at the Kentucky Horse Park. Children attending Bluegrass HorseAbility will participate in therapeutic riding, horse games and grooming. Additionally, non-horse related activities will include arts & crafts, water games, gardening, music and literacy building.
“For many years, CKRH has wanted to provide the community with a full-time summer program,” said Denise Spittler, CKRH Programs Director. “The staff at Easter Seals Cardinal Hill share this passion, and, by combining resources, we are all excited to see our dream become a reality.”
