Over the next few weeks we will be sharing blog posts from our awesome interns from Coastal Carolina University. We are so lucky to have their enthusiasm and hope they learn a lot from their experience with us!
This week at
Fidelis we had an all boys group come out.
I had a group of three this week who road Tee.
Tee is my favorite horse to work with because
he is very sweet and understanding. Half
of my group had been to Fidelis before so they knew how to groom and tack, but
one of my group members had never been to Fidelis before and had never been
around horses before. With support from
his teammates and I he got the courage to go near Tee and help groom him.
Teamwork plays a huge role at Fidelis because
the kids need teamwork to successfully work together and to complete the task
at hand. All of the kids were very
confident once they got onto the horse.
Their favorite things to do was weave through the pole and to trot. The kids love trotting because they get to go
fast and it gives them a sense of freedom.
Once my entire group was done riding they said that Tee was their new
favorite horse and that they couldn’t wait to come back and ride again. – Noelle
