Join us in congratulating Roni on his retirement!
During the First Annual Horsemanship Show, Roni will be making an appearance at our photo booth! Come say hello and get your picture taken on your phone for a donation of your choice! All funds collected from the photo booth will go towards Roni’s Retirement Fund!
Roni has faithfully and lovingly served at OTR since we opened our doors in 2012! OTR makes a commitment that therapy horses who retire from our programs have a retirement program in place to live out the rest of their lives. We look forward to many more years of Roni galloping in the field and enjoying time with the herd!
