Join us for Sweeps Week at Warrior Horse! One week every year working shoulder to shoulder with other sweeps doing volunteer projects and learning from one another! On the agenda this year: timber frame building construction, brick cutting, prep work, and maintenance. Come for a day or come for a week. It's free to attend and camping is available on site for a $25 donation. We hope you can join us and help make it an event to remember!

The Warrior Horse program uses a personalized and interactive equine-assisted method, which we call the “Bonding Process” to assist military veterans who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) to begin their recovery from this debilitating disorder. Our program is open to current and former members of the armed forces of the United States who have been diagnosed with PTSD and have had some “let down” period after a tour of active duty. The program is provided at no financial cost to the veterans. They protected our way of life. It’s time that we help them get their lives back.Warrior Horse offers healing and hope to traumatized military veterans by reducing the participating veterans’ symptoms of depression, post-traumatic stress, and suicidal thoughts. Working with horses has long been recognized as an effective tool for helping to treat persons with physical and mental challenges. Warrior Horse offers this program as an adjunct to more long-term forms of assistance that the military veteran may pursue for PTSD and other mental challenges. Warrior Horse’s program is funded by donations from the general public, donation of racehorses by racehorse owners, and grants. Contact: https://www.facebook.com/sweepsweekatwarriorhorse |
