🌟 Step Back in Time to Make a Difference Today! 🌟

Get ready to twist, jive, and rock around the clock at our 1950’s Happy Days Sock Hop Fundraiser—all in support of Stirrups ‘n Strides Therapeutic Riding Center!

At Stirrups ‘n Strides, we believe in the healing power of horses. Every day, we witness life-changing moments—children or adults taking their first steps with confidence, people finding peace in the saddle, and individuals with disabilities discovering strength they didn’t know they had. But none of it would be possible without you.

This groovy night of fun—complete with live ‘50s music, dancing, a buffet, casino games, a silent auction, and vintage vibes galore—isn’t just a party. It’s a chance to support a cause that transforms lives. Every dollar raised helps us care for our incredible therapy horses, train volunteers, and provide safe, uplifting riding experiences to those who need them most.

You can help by:
🕺 Attending the event – Grab your poodle skirts and leather jackets!
💛 Donating – Can’t make it? Your support still makes a huge impact.
🙌 Volunteering – Join our barn family and be part of something truly special.

✨ Special thanks to our event sponsors: Lipchip, Fiesta Pools
✨ Current Stirrups ‘n Strides sponsors: Adam Hanson Foundation, Horse Talk Show
✨ Want to see your business here? Get your logo and sponsorship listed—support a great cause while gaining visibility!

So come join the fun and be a part of the magic that keeps Stirrups ‘n Strides galloping forward. Together, we can make a difference—one hoofbeat at a time.
