Cadence Annual Volunteer Appreciation Picnic
Under warm, Indian Summer skies, the leadership team led by Cadence president, Ron Tyner, hosted a picnic to honor our 2011 volunteers along with our riders and their families. In the spirit of mutual admiration, the pot luck affair was enjoyed by all. Sheltered by the shade of a large pine tree and surrounded by fall colors, more than 30 people celebrated the meaning of Cadence and the accomplishments of our riders, each one making substantial progress throughout the session. Our pride in each and every rider, their families and our dedicated volunteers cannot be overstated.

Durango Cowboy Parade
Thanks to continued warm and sunny weather the Cowboy Poetry Gathering Parade was a great day for Cadence Therapeutic Riding to share the joy of our program with the spectators lining the curbs along Main Avenue. Some of our clients able to ride in the parade greeted and waved to the admiring and cheering crowds who applauded our team and riders.

Special Needs Rodeo
Cadence Therapeutic Riding played a vital role at a Special Needs Rodeo held at the La Plata County Fairgrounds with our volunteers and board members working with many of the disabled attendees, their families and caretakers. With our well-trained horses, the riders experienced an enjoyable and safe experience throughout the afternoon.
An added bonus for Cadence was meeting horseman and retired rodeo bullrider, Tim McCarthy, who spent the entire day devoting his efforts to the joy of others. We are delighted to announce that, Tim has not only been a faithful volunteer at the Cadence facilities ever since, we are also proud to announce Tim’s appointment to our board of directors. He is a natural with our riders who have come to rely on Tim to help them with their therapeutic experience. Welcome aboard, Tim!
