Hello all, we hope you come out to our annual spring fundraiser. This year it will be at Trax Bar and Grill in Deerfield IL. The time will be 7 P.M. to 9 P.M. and will include food, wine, and beer. We will have a silent auction with something for everyone. Also we will have our "Race for the Carrots" finish line at the event, the winner (the horse that gets the most money) will get the honorary race winner title along with a whole bag of carrots.

ABC 7 News Story 2012
Horsefeathers made the news with a story by ABC 7's reporter Karen Meyers, featuring riders from Keshet enjoying rides with our wonderful horses. Even more compelling than the interview explaining what therapeutic riding is, was the video of the these very special riders. The image of the team required for each lesson - horse, leader, instructor, sidewalker, and rider - all working together toward a common goal, is powerful, and all of us at Horsefeathers are grateful to ABC 7 for telling our story.
The Rainbow Bridge – Lynda Vital (1952-2011)

Her ready laugh, irreverent wit, generous spirit, and boundless good will graced Horsefeathers through good times and hard times, sustaining horses and humans alike.
