We hope you enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends!  We were blessed with scrumptious food and relaxing fellowship.

Now…it’s on to water lines and hay!  We are excited to share that we are putting in water lines for the animals!  After six years of running hoses from the house, we are digging trenches and running hydrants.  YAY!  Strong backs welcome next Friday and Saturday, December 1-2, to dig and set up our hydrants and waterers.

The horses need hay!  We need help putting up an additional 100 bales of hay this weekend.  Are you available on Friday or Saturday, November 24-25?  Join us for an hour or two.  All ages of Ranch Hands welcome.  Jeans, long sleeves, tennis shoes or boots, and gloves recommended.  (We have some available as well.)

Please let us know you’re coming. Call or text Kaarin at 303-898-5567.

Group Publishing Youth Care Award!

We are excited to share that we have been blessed to receive the 2017 Group Publishing Youth Care Award!  This $1000 gift supports the opportunity for us to create pathways using Repurposed Materials between barns.  This will make Guided Hope more accessible to anyone needing more solid footing, walking canes, or wheelchair accessibility to enjoy our animals and family time together.  If you would like to volunteer to help with this project in the spring, please contact Kaarin Scoma at kaarinscoma@guidedhope.org or 303-898-5567.  Thank you, Group Publishing!
