Our 2nd Annual Lassos with Love fundraiser was a resounding success! With a sold-out crowd of 220 attendees, guests enjoyed the beauty of Five Star Equestrian — with the serene backdrop of nickering horses, beautiful rolling hills, and dramatic sunset —along with the energy and excitement of our silent, live, and online auctions. It was a special evening filled with connections, old and new. Guests were treated to a remarkable performance by Kansas Carradine, her daughter, and Dude from Cavalia, as well as inspiring stories from our honorary Chair Tammy Maida, Charlotte Driver, and Claudia Sonder, DVM. This year, we were thrilled to introduce additional events, including a Friday night lecture about the Gaucho Derby and a Saturday clinic with Kansas Carradine.
None of this would have been possible without the dedication of our 50+ incredible volunteers, generous community donations, and support from our sponsors. Thanks to this generosity, we raised over $100,000, allowing us to continue offering no-cost equine-assisted workshops and sensory engagement kits for those impacted by dementia. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this unforgettable night possible! Keep an eye out for our 2025 dates.
