Educational Component
Dan made this tremendous kiosk which prominently features Tom's sign. It is this kind of volunteer activity that keeps our operation running.
It is the purpose behind that kiosk that makes it worth the effort to keep our operation running.
We ride. We train. We learn.
But most importantly, we teach.
We teach horses, history and humanity. We teach music. We teach cooperation and compassion.
One can ignore a footnote in a book. One can even ignore a book, but one cannot enter our horse lot without seeing and being drawn to this kiosk. It is designed to present information in a manner that it can can quickly absorbed.
So quickly, in fact, that a kid can learn something before he has time to realize that he is being educated.
Is that Warren Hakes on the left in the back?
