Summer Programs Photo Collage Recap!!!

We just finished up Summer programming with the Ute Mountain Ute tribe,
Mancos Summer Hub and The Hive all pictured). Through these partnerships we supported youth in cultivating deeper self-awareness through connection to horses, reflective art processes and the land. Each program had its own focus such as compassion, creativity, leadership and overall summer time fun. We embarked on many art projects including horse shoe painting, beading, superhero drawings, kindness rocks and many more. We love providing space to explore internal and external landscapes. We cannot wait for Fall programs to begin this coming week!

Calling All Golfers!

I know many of you are weary after the Pinto Bean this past weekend, but our kids need you!

The 16th Annual Medicine Horse 4-Person Scramble is this Saturday, August 23rd, at Conquistador Golf Course. This tournament raises money for our youth education and therapy programs at Medicine Horse, by funding scholarships. Each scholarship means that our young folks can build strong peer-to-peer relationships, learn effective communication skills, become strong leaders, and help improve their outlook on life.

Come be part of building up our young folks — play the links and help set strong foundations. We appreciate your support!

Lynne and All at Medicine Horse!

Summer Program Recap with !!!

As we wind down from a buzzing summer here we’re taking a look back at all the fun programs… We had a BLAST with Wild Hive playing games, making tye dye bandanas, meeting and grooming the horses, painting old horse shoes and giving them new life on a sculpture in our garden. The Hive’s value of the week was COMPASSION so we explored the ways that connecting horses can foster care for ourselves and others. Thank you for coming out Wild Hive and for leaving an imprint on Medicine Horse with your beautiful horseshoes!

Reflections from our Human Herd!

Summer! What a fun and HOT time to visit Medicine Horse. We are excited to be hosting youth from the Mancos Summer Hub, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, and The Hive. My favorite part of our summer programs is watching the connections that are happening with the horses. These youth are thoughtful and kind with our beloved herd and when we ask for a highlight of the day the most common answer is “hanging with the horses.” I am also enjoying watching all of the creativity abound during our art projects. We’ve seen amazing Self Super Heroes, colorful beaded bracelets, and clay figures like saber-toothed unicorns, horses, and bowls. And overarching it all is the magic that is Medicine Horse: themes of leadership, communication, and connection to self and others that are embedded in every activity. I am grateful for work that leaves me feeling impactful and grounded at the end of the day and for the youth that show up and bring their full selves out to play.
