Gardens, Goats, Eagle Scouts and Events!

Wow!  What a busy, blessed June we have had so far.   This week we were incredibly grateful for help from our volunteers.

* Our garden is in!  Creative use of those livestock panels from our green thumb experts 🙂

*  Meanwhile, our back pasture crew cleaned pens and the tack room.  Thank you, middle schoolers and parents!

*  Felicity had twins last night!  Our last kidding of the season.  One doeling and one buckling.  Love our floppy-eared Nubians.

*  We received our benches from Aaron!  Congratulations on completing your final Eagle Scout project!  These innovative benches/picnic tables will see daily use for years to come.   Thank you!

*  We’re prepping for tomorrow’s Hoe Down!  Join us from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. if you can!

As we continue to serve children and families in our summer Roundups, we are grateful for your support.  Thank you!

Thank you, “Keepers of the Faith” families for serving!

Scout is such a good sport with the kids! Hard to decide between painting horses and holding baby goats 🙂  We are grateful to the “Keepers of the Faith” families for serving at Guided Hope! Mucking stalls, weeding our entry path, cleaning pens, and more! Of course, we had to have some fun, too 🙂 Pictures of wheelbarrow races, egg and spoon and more to come.

Wrangler Volunteer Horsemanship Clinic

Junior and Family Roundups are open for registration! Visit our website www.guidedhope.org for details. We are getting ready for our guests with our Wrangler Volunteer Horsemanship Clinics. This past Saturday started with a cold rain, but that didn’t stop our amazing volunteers from coming out for training! We’re grateful God is providing rain for our hay crop. Fortunately, the rain let up in time for us to practice outside. More trainings are planned if you’d like to apply as a Wrangler Volunteer. Details are on our website. Join our GH Team in serving children and families in our community!

Girl Scout Blessings

An incredible weekend of activity at Guided Hope, starting with a wonderful blessing from a local Girl Scout troop! Many thanks to these girls for their generous support of Guided Hope so that we may continue to serve children and families in our community! We enjoyed having them out for chores and fun 🙂
