Hope that you have had a wonderful Thanksgiving break with family. For those of you who may not have heard, our pony Casey passed away recently. She was nearing her late 30's and is our cherished "angel pony." She was very much loved as we has the opportunity of watching her teach others about riding as well as the joy of being with horses. RECENT EDUCATIONAL EVENTS hosted at LeCheval - EAGALA - Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association- from the Mason - Dixon Line completed their second visit to LeCheval Stable to share and gain CEU's for instructors of equine assisted therapy and activities. Many thanks to Natalie Cerchio, coaching support, who facilitated a 2 hour "Have You Herd?" workshop on NOV. 19, for LeCheval's volunteers, compliments of Marya Pecukonis, director and lead instructor. ABUNDANT THANKS! GirlScout, Morgan Miller and her crew successfully completed a new mounting ramp for her Silver Award. Eagle Scouts, Jacob Kempic and Jack Mansfield crafted an outdoor structure to house bedding and built a new walkway for individuals needing wheelchair access.
