"For a Taste of the Valley”: Food and Wine Gala
Spring is around the corner and we are planning our 3rd Annual “For a Taste of the Valley”: Food and Wine Gala!! You’ll not only get your choice of fine food from many of the area's best restaurants and caterers, but you’ll be supporting a good cause at the same time, as the gala is a fundraiser for the Lanark County Therapeutic Riding Program.
The Gala will be held on Monday, May 3rd, 2010 at Almonte’s Civitan Hall and promises to be great, with most of the best local restaurants and caterers, and wine and beer producers participating.
A Taste of the Valley runs from 6:00-10:00PM and tickets are available at The Miller’s Tale in Almonte, Shadowfax in Perth, and the Therapeutic Riding Program’s office at 103 Judson St., in Carleton Place. Tickets are $10 each or $50 for a table of six. Food, wine and beer coupons can be purchased at the event.
Also mark your calendar for our Barn Dance at the Davidson’s Glengyle Farm in Lanark on Saturday, June 19th, 2010

What is therapeutic riding?
Therapeutic Riding is a unique and holistic
approach to therapy, rehabilitation and recreation. The Lanark County
Therapeutic Riding Program provides a safe environment introducing children
and adults to the benefits and joys of the healing powers of the horse. The
team consists of Instructors who are certified through the Canadian
Therapeutic Riding Association, a consulting Physiotherapist who is trained
in hippotherapy, enthusiastic volunteers who offer their expertise and
caring and of course our wonderful horses!
