If you love horses and want others to experience the joys of riding as well, contact the Manes & Motion Therapeutic Riding Center about volunteering with their programs. This Middletown-based not-for-profit aims to enhance the well-being of individuals living with physical, emotional and/or cognitive special needs through the benefits of equine-assisted activities. Volunteers are needed to assist the participants, serve as side walkers or leaders, and do valuable behind-the-scenes work like caring for the horses, maintaining the facility, and helping with fundraising events or office tasks. To get involved, contact Sarah Hallwood by calling 860-685-0008 or emailing m&mvolunteercoordinator@hfsc.org
