As in years past, this year’s lesson program came to a close

with the completion of Special Olympics in Perry, GA

We are all extremely proud of how each rider has progressed this year and we look forward to seeing everyone in 2008.  The Hands and Hearts staff would also like to give a special thanks to all of our dedicated volunteers who helped with this year’s show.  Without you, attending Special Olympics, and conducting daily lessons would not be possible.
