Thanks Chris Jones and Alice Harris for stepping into Charlotte's shoes and doing right by her. I know she would be proud!

Most of all, special thanks to all the participants of the ride. We appreciate your support, which without it, we would not be able to help the horses. This rescue has been a community effort and it has succeeded thus far because of the public support we have received. We promise to continue our mission to the best of our abilities as long as the funding is available and we are needed.

Sincerely,

Diane Lowery, President
