You can order tickets securely online here. Or you can order by calling the FENCE office at 828-859-9021. All proceeds from this event help us bring TROT to more special needs riders and provide them with safe, educational and fun lessons with our instructors, volunteers and equine helpers. TROT is a therapeutic riding program teaching horsemanship skills to adults and children with physical and developmental difficulties in a safe, friendly and supportive environment. You can watch a short video about our program produced by students at Isothermal Community College here. As a Premier Accredited Center of the North American Riding For The Handicapped Association (NARHA), TROT adheres to strict standards set by NARHA for safety and effective teaching.
