SAVE THE DATE and register early for H.E.L.P.'s Spooktactular Scavenger Hunt Trail Ride #helptrailride, benefitting Phoebe's Scholarship Fund. Early registration is open now!

H.E.L.P. is a therapeutic riding center that helps people with disabilities and challenges gain independence and confidence through horsemanship and horseback riding.

Many families cannot afford our unique services and insurance doesn’t always cover it. Phoebe's Scholarship Fund was created to help those families benefit from our program and can only continue with support from people like YOU!

Event is open to all riders. All disciplines welcome.

Each rider will pay the $10 entry fee into Parrie Haynes Ranch.
Each rider will also pay an online registration fee of $25, or $35 the day of the event.

This is a scavenger hunt trail ride that is about 6 miles long. Riders search for Halloween-themed items hidden along the trail. A grand prize is awarded to the rider who collects the most scavenger hunt items.

After the ride is lunch and then a costume contest parade. Prizes are awarded to the best horse and rider costume in two age categories: under 18 and 18 & over. A special prize is awarded to the person posting the most on Instagram and Facebook using the hashtag #helptrailride.
