A PLEA FOR HELP

We are currently caring for the largest number of horses we have ever had in our rescue program, and their needs are great. Won't you please consider making a donation to help sponsor their care in the coming months? They - and we - thank you!

CANTER NE Benefit Pace at King Oak Farm!



CANTER NE is happy to announce that our spring hunter pace will be held for the first time ever at King Oak Farm on Sunday, May 18th, 2008!

This spring's hunter pace is especially exciting because of its new venue.  Located in Southampton, MA, King Oak Farm is widely known for its annual spring and fall horse trials.  Participants in the hunter pace will have the opportunity to take advantage of King Oak's extensive cross country courses and trails on more than 180 acres of farm and woods. This is an excellent opportunity to ride the same USEA/USEF registered courses and jumps as participants in the Spring Horse Trials the weekend before!  

All pace proceeds will benefit CANTER New England's placement and adoption efforts, which have helped over 1,500 retiring Thoroughbred racehorses since 2002.  In 2007, CANTER saw a substantial increase in the number of injured horses entering our adoption program, resulting in a doubling of our veterinary bills. Ride, have fun, and support the horses!
