The Native Horsemanship Riding Center, home of Peninsula Therapeutic Riding, 396 Taylor Cutoff Road, Sequim, is recruiting volunteers and donations.

The new NHRC Executive Committee includes center president Martha Ireland, treasurer Joey Barton, second vice president Bill Wood; first vice president Gussie Barton and secretary Sharon Hogue.

NHRC founder Yvette TwoRabbits continues as executive director and lead riding instructor. Other officers are first vice president Gussie Barton, second vice president Bill Wood, secretary Sharon Hogue and treasurer Joey Barton. NHRC is a tax-deductible 501(c)3 nonprofit that combines gentle Native American-style horsemanship with Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship (PATH) riding instruction, to serve people of all ages and abilities.

“Therapeutic riding works miracles for children, adults, veterans and others with special needs, and also for horse-crazy kids and seniors who have horses on their bucket list,” said Martha Ireland, new president of the board of directors.

“We offer private and group lessons by appointment and will host a special event each month, beginning April 25,” Ireland said.

“Right now we also are looking to re-home two horses and two small ponies.”
