EVENTS
Our Fall Support Drive is here!
We have a variety of events lined-up for you to attend and support our work here at Red Horse Center.
FIRST FRIDAY
Herd Meditation
Relax, restore, and reflect by attending a Herd Meditation at Red Horse Center in Fennville, MI. Herd Meditations offer peace, quiet, fresh air, and some time to slow things down with a supportive herd of horses. No horse experience is required.
The herd meditation consists of small groups of people gathering together with a brief, calming meditative exercise led by our Facilitators. Participants are then invited to join the herd at their own pace and at whatever distance feels comfortable.
FRI 10/2
4 pm - 6 pm
NURTURING THE HERD
Join the herd while learning and engaging in supporting them. Activities may vary, and include aspects of grooming: like brushing, bathing, hoof-picking and other methods.
October's session will lean into Horses for Mental Health's Horsetober theme of "Pass the Braid", by brushing and braiding tales and manes.
SAT 10/17
11 am - 1 pm
