Spring has definitely sprung at Saddles In Service! We are so grateful for longer days of sunshine so we can get extra riding time in. Although we have had quite a few rainy days, we have been working hard to keep the horses in shape and healthy. We are so grateful for our volunteers that help keep the horses in shape and also our heroes who come out extra days to help with horses. I love how our SIS family pulls together to make sure the horses are healthy and most importantly, happy. 

I want to thank our donors and volunteers who have been helping do projects around both ranches. The rain has wreaked havoc on our roads and have needed lots of work. Thank you to Keith Anderson who purchased material for our roads and John Salzano who worked to fix the main road. What a difference a nice road makes, especially when towing horse trailers with our precious cargo. 

I am excited to announce that our Bunkhouse is ready to go!  Kenny’s Bunkhouse will house our first official hero this month! The Yontz Valor Foundation made the renovation possible through their yearly support to SIS. I want to thank Terri Yontz Miller for her and her family’s continued support! I am also excited to share that we have adopted two new mustangs from the Sacramento Sheriff’s department. Their names are Yontz and Liberty! Yontz was named in honor and memory of Kenneth Yontz. I cannot wait to see the difference these two horses will make in the lives of our heroes. 

Thank you again to our Sponsors, Donors, and Volunteers. We could not do the healing work we do without you! You are saving lives one ride at a time!

Thanks to you, our heroes “don’t have to ride alone.”

With much love and gratitude.
Tammy
