| Ponies and Promises Therapeutic Riding Group is a therapeutic recreational riding program in Jefferson County, WV, designed for children with disabilities. Our specially trained ponies, horses and volunteers meet on the third Tuesday of every month to offer a leisure activity for children with disabilities and their families. The Ponies & Promises Program allows children of any age to experience the fun of horseback riding. But this is not just a pony ride! Research shows that children who participate in therapeutic riding can experience physical, emotional and mental rewards. The benefits of horseback riding are as numerous as the types of disabilities and conditions served, including increased flexibility, balance, muscle strength, confidence, patience and self-esteem. |

| Margaret Liskey, co-leader of the 4-H Club Saddles and Smiles, found that 4-H age limits restricted some children from the benefits of therapeutic riding. So, Margaret and I got together, and Ponies and Promises was born! With help from the Saddles and Smiles Group, Ponies and Promises allows children of all ages to participate! |
