It’s gone! HorseBuds has donated its wheelchair mounting ramp to a non-profit in need, The Joe Joe Project at Connections Through Horses in Elizabeth CO. These good people now have more options to ride participants!

Bonny Lass: Blast from the past. Juilie Lorton riding her in her second parade in Kersey. Draft horses coming up the rear and Bonny couldn’t care less because she was in Juilie-land!

Thank you everyone for celebrating the retirement of HorseBuds yesterday. We started out in the heated barn show-casing our amazing horses and their tricks-which they LOVE to do! Then we moved to a BB-Q with back-yard fun! Thank you everyone for your encouragement and support. It meant the world to me and our volunteers and work crews. HorseBuds’ help has changed over the years, but for 14 years we have been blessed by so many beautiful and giving people. HorseBuds was a joint effort and couldn’t have survived without your prayers, your physical help, your faithfulness, and a sense of coming together to serve the Northeastern Colorado Community with its first and only PATH International Center and the very first Horse Boy and Movement Method endorsed programs specializing in programs specifically for children and adults with autism. God bless the days and years ahead for you all as you hold such a dear and special place in my heart! Enjoy a glimpse of our celebration!

Teak, “Lips!” Bonny’s brother! I will always wish I didn’t let him go to live in Wyoming.

If you have joined our HorseBuds family as a volunteer, participate’s family or a donor over the past 14 years and have somehow missed this retirement party announcement, please reach out to me.
Office management has never been my strength. Let me know by tomorrow if you would like to come to our picnic and final event! (And what you’d like to eat!) HorseBuds and me, Deb, are officially retiring the 501c3. …So very thankful for all the years we were privileged to serve Northern Colorado. We learned so many life lessons along the way and we have made many life long friendships! Alumni’s reach out! We’d love to see you! Deb
