NOTE: Due to the horse arrival scheduling change from Sunday to Saturday, the horses will not arrive until very late tonight. Unfortunately, this mission has to be cancelled. There are plans to invite PGR to another event in the future so we will look forward to that event. Saddles in Service (SIS), a nonprofit organization, is a horsemanship program dedicated “to combat the suicide rates of Veterans, Active-Duty Military, and First Responders and to promote mental health, wellness and healing to these Heroes through equine-assisted learning and activities.”
The Patriot Guard Riders have been asked to be part of a unique opportunity to honor our military, veterans, and first responders: to accompany horses that have been donated to the SIS organization. The horses will be arriving from Kentucky and delivered to the newly donated Circle T Ranch in Descanso, CA.
Tammy Oluvic, CEO of the SIS organization, has witnessed several PGR processions on the road and thought it would be a fantastic idea to have these horses accompanied to their new home by the PGR. We are thrilled to be asked to be part of the delivery of these rescued horses that will assist our Heroes in learning and to promote mental health, wellness, and healing. We are honored to fulfill her request.
