HOPE volunteers get free cardio workouts


November 25, 2011 · Updated 8:42 AM 

HOPE Therapeutic Riding Center is hosting volunteer training for its winter quarter, beginning with a webinar Monday, Dec. 12 at 6 p.m.

Hands-on training will be Tuesday, Dec. 13 at 4 p.m. at the North Whidbey arena, where winter quarter will be located.

There is no need for horse experience; all that’s required is helping students discover their abilities.

If you are unable to volunteer for winter quarter you are still welcome to attend the training so that you are ready for following quarters. There are many volunteer opportunities available if you are not interested in volunteering in the arena.

For information call 360-221-7656 or email Melissa at melissa@hope-whidbey.org to sign up.
