OUR JIM

I am sad to report that we lost Jim today. He was around 35 years old. We did have beautiful weather this past Saturday and he spent the day giving rides to the little ones. Something he loved to do. He will always be missed, and never be forgotten.

THANK YOU

We received over $2000 in donations last week. Thank you all so much! We are trucking right along with our $10,000 challenge.

If you'd like to help but can't afford a monetary donation, there are other things we could use that you might have sitting around collecting dust. Anything horse related... halters, blankets, hay feeders, etc etc.

Prairie hay and brome are also needed... especially this time of year. And senior feed.

GHOSTLY HORSES

Be sure and come see us at Clifton Square this Halloween. We'll be there Saturday from 3PM 'til ?? Bring your camera, and have your picture taken with Boo and Tiny.
Clifton Square is in Wichita... east of Douglas and Hillside. (Douglas & Clifton)

$10K CHALLENGE

** $10,000 DONATION AND PLEDGE CHALLENGE **
An anonymous donor came to us on September 24 with a proposal. They have $10,000 to donate to the rescue. The catch... they are challenging others to match their pledge by the end of 2009.* This doesn't necessarily have to be one person, or one company, who donates $10,000. The idea is to raise another $10,000 to match their pledge.
Donations and pledges can be made via PayPal at http://hitveras.blogspot.com/; or by mailing, or dropping off, a check to the rescue. This can be a one time donation, or a monthly pledge amount. If you would like to be a part of this challenge, please notate "10K" in the memo/purpose field of your check or PayPal when making your donation. Thank you in advance for your support.
*All monies must be received by January 1, 2010.

We have over 30 rescues right now. Below are three who came in within the last few weeks. They are all three underweight, one especially. These sweet mares are all in their mid 20s, and their owner failed to see that they were losing weight, and in poor health. Thankfully she did decide to surrender them to the rescue.

And here's Jewel.

NEW BABY

Introducing Onyx. She was born at the rescue a few weeks ago. Pictured with her is her proud mama, Molly. Molly is a sweet pony with a great temperment.

"Soul of a Horse" will happen on August 29th!! Come see us at Emma Creek that day. :)
