On Sunday March 24, 2013, from 2 - 6pm at the Orchards Restaurant in Chambersburg, there will be merchandise (live and silent auctions) and service vouchers donated by local businesses and community members as well as ten local cowboys to bid on. All funds go to support Franklin County Extension's Therapeutic Riding Center.

Funds generated from this event will help people with special needs to receive therapy, relax and build confidence through horsemanship. “Making therapeutic riding available to people with special needs takes more than just horses”, says Susan Rotz, FCTRC instructor. “We continuously need to raise funds to stock up our supplies and improve material support to our barn: A barn that is unique to Franklin County!”
