Boy Scouts Help Ivy Hill

Ivy Hill Therapeutic Equestrian Center would like to thank Lucas Rogers and Boy Scout Troop 67 of Hilltown for their recent facility service project. Lucas is working towards an Eagle Scout designation and part of the requirement is to run a service project. Lucas chose Ivy Hill because several of his friend’s use Ivy Hill’s services. He wanted to say thank you for the service Ivy Hill provides to the community and his friends.

His troop, with the help of over 30 volunteers, built a shed for wheel barrels, shovels and pitchforks, installed fencing to divide a large pasture and built a display case for awards and Ivy Hill’s Horse of the Year Blankets. They accomplished the project by raising money for materials as well as finding help to complete the projects.

Megan Strychowski, Program Manager stated “We are very happy with the projects Lucas, his troop & volunteers worked on at our facility. Everything was done with pride and we have had lots of compliments on the display case which can be seen as soon as you walk into the barn.” She says it is always wonderful when service organizations offer their time and talents to Ivy Hill. As a non-profit, there is always more work to be done than funds allow. Ivy Hill would like to wish Lucas the best of luck in becoming an Eagle Scout!

Ivy Hill Receives Grant

Ivy Hill Therapeutic Equestrian Center is pleased to announce it recently received a grant in the amount of $2,520.00 from KCI Servant’s Heart Foundation. The grant will provide six scholarships and the ability to purchase team building equipment for summer camp at Ivy Hill. Ivy Hill's Inclusion Based Summer Camp is a great way for children to develop riding skills as well as enjoy social interaction with children who share similar interests. Summer camp goals include increase self esteem, create responsibility, build confidence, team building, develop fine and gross motor skills and strengthening socialization/communication skills. Activities include horsemanship skills, arts and crafts, horseback riding lessons, and grooming, tacking and bathing the horses. Ivy Hill is more than just a riding school; we provide a well balanced equestrian program. During camp each child discovers the joy of horses. Ivy Hill provides a safe and fun learning environment for all participants who want to experience the magic of horses. For more information about our summer camp opportunities, please contact Megan Strychowski, Program Manager at (215) 822-2515 ext. 1 or via email at mstrychoski@ivyhillequestrian.org.
