On Saturday, June 15, 2019, from 9:30 am to 12:00, Cary AYLUS attended CORRAL Riding Academy’s Farm Day and volunteered to help out with chores on the farm.
CORRAL’s Farm Day gave a quick 20 minute tour around their horse farm, talking about the horses and the plot of land, but most importantly, what they do as a non-profit organization. CORRAL’s main function is to pair rescued horses with girls in high-risk situations who come from unfortunate backgrounds to provide healing and long-term changes. They also provide tutoring and mentorship to give these girls choices for the future.
After the tour, the rest of the time was spent pulling weeds in a field the horses would soon rotate into.
