Theo Unruh’s Eagle Scout project build includes a mounting block and fully accessible ramp to make Howard Buford Recreation Area more accessible for all riders, young or old, traditionally abled or not. All horses and riders can benefit from less stress.
Theo has raised almost 40% of the estimated funds needed without lumber donations or wholesale purchase offers. He still has quite a bit to go… more updates as soon as we reach out to local suppliers!
