Thank you to our generous donors for making this possible! We can’t wait to see who wins big!

Meet Rylen, a TROtt rider and our September feature!

Rylen came to TROtt in December 2021, and recently places 1st with Abby at a virtual dressage competition hosted by @hopehaven_therapeutic.

Rylen’s favourite TROtt horse is Abby because she challenges and teaches him.

When asked what his favourite part about lessons is, he said, “learning new skills and caring for the horses before and after lessons.”

Outside of TROtt, Rylen is part of many sports teams. He enjoys playing soccer, hockey and tennis. Additionally, he likes speed cubing, coding, and gaming with his friends.

We’re so proud of Rylen’s accomplishments and we’re excited to see him continue to grow his skills.

We’re sorry we missed you this weekend – but to keep the spirit of the BBQ going, we’re
running our virtual silent auction all week!

The prizes that you were most excited for are still up for grabs! Take a peek at our all of our
items and get your bids in through the link in our bio.

Winners will be contacted when the auction closes.

We appreciate your ongoing support!

Due to the severe weather expected tomorrow the difficult decision was made to cancel the TROtt BBQ Fundraiser. Unfortunately, TROtt does not have the facility to host everyone indoors and it has been deemed that the risk was too high to congregate participants under one area.

Those that bought tickets should have received a refund this morning. Unfortunately the Eventbrite fee is non-refundable.

Our team has been working diligently and has set up an online silent auction so you still have the opportunity to bid and win one of the many fabulous prizes that were generously donated. You can view and bid on silent auction until September 25 through the link in our bio

We are saddened to cancel the BBQ, as we were looking forward to gathering with the community that has supported us, especially during the past two years. Before the pandemic the annual BBQ fundraiser was one that we relied on to help us raise the money we needed to keep the cost of lessons low and maintain the excellent care our herd receives. If you are interested in making a donation, you can make one through the link in our bio.

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. If you have any questions, you can send us a DM.
