Reading-at-the-Ranch

Join us in reading a book to our wonderful therapy animals!

Part of our Outdoor Educational program, Reading-at-the-Ranch is open to students of all ages and aims to encourage reading and communication skills, public speaking and community literacy, as well as foster a connection with animals.

Participants may bring a book of their own, select one from our library, or even bring schoolwork that they might need help with!

We are looking for volunteers to help with R-A-R! Contact us today!
