Battle of the Barns!!

The Happy Hoofer Barn (aka Hacienda del Capitan and Happy Hoofer Horse Camp) is entering the Battle of the Barns to raise money for the Santa Rosa County Horse Assistance Council*. I hope lots of other barns are entering as well, because we're ready for a challenge and don't think that anyone out there can out-fund-raise us!!!

We plan to kick-off our Battle this Saturday - May 16 - by hosting an "Open Barn" with pony rides and a petting zoo. The hours are 10:00 am to 1:00 pm. and we're asking for a minimum $5 donation per person. Please come support this cause if you're able! For directions or more information, email horsecamp@bellsouth.net.

*the Santa Rosa County Horse Assistance Council, partnering with Santa Rosa County Animal Services, provides sanctuary for abused, neglected and abandoned horses until new, loving homes can be found for them. But the food, shelter and medical care these horses so desperately need is expensive. Visit their website at www.srchorseassistance.org.
