SOME GOOD NEWS.. In a world of Bad News, here is some good news to smile about… For one, I am going to dedicate myself to not only helping
Bushtracker Owners, but also Riding for the Disabled. The program is growing, now with a 40 Metre covered arena starting this month, and I am dedicating about $300,000 in facilities and the front half of a million dollar horse property to them. I thank God, I was well off before
Bushtracker, so I can afford to do this. We have about 80 kids that will benefit in the first Chapter alone.. Now another Branch is joining us, and if we can, we are going to double the size of the 40 Metre arena to 80 Metres in the next couple of years. The State RDA body came up for a Meeting, with an aim to Host State Championships there, if we can put together the other 40 Meters, which we are hoping to do. The 120 Volunteers, are not the parents, this program is not only the highlight of the children’s lives, but it also gives the Parents a break. As for the actual program, “Hippotherapy” is the articulation of the horse that articulates their bodies in a therapeutic way. And lets not forget the ear to ear grins. I will post some pictures. The first stage is being Delivered Wednesday so they say… Hope… Hope…
What is in it for me? A constant stream of smiles will pave my way into the future, and give me a place to put any future earnings from my Investments, to good use. I pledge to not only try and do the right thing, all the time; but also to use the proceeds for the greater good. My course is set, I am here to Campaign Reining Horses to see if I can become “Open Reining Horse Champion of Australia” ( yea right, when pigs fly); and dedicate myself to helping Boggers and other
Bushtracker Owners. But I will also use the proceeds of any investing for the highlight of the lives of these “special needs” children… The future is full for a busy fellow!!!
Is there anyone that can offer some support, any little bit will help?? A retired horse for instance, would be going to horse heaven where he would be loved and groomed and hand fed, and just walked around or do a light trot now and then. Any old farm equipment or tractor rusting to bits somewhere? Anything would be of a help! We are going to try and turn this into a 30 acres into a Garden Park Equestrian Estate centre for the kids… The Legendary Roy Rogers Ranch for Kids sort of thing, here in Australia. Pictures below of what we have going, just before the 40 Metre indoor arena starts…
And now ALL OF YOU are part of it, you will all be playing a Role in helping these kids as
Bushtracker is helping some. Newbies, you can have a little “feel good” about that.. Boggers, when you help to make another Bogger like you have been for years, you can have a little “feel good” about that.. Have a little smile, and think about the sunshine we can bring into the lives of the less fortunate in our own little way…
For that matter all of us, can have a little smile as we help…… There, but by the Grace of God, Go I…
Kind Regards to all from the lone Ranger… Some Pictures of the Project:
