Seaside Church in Lewes recently donated $1,500 to the Sussex Consortium for its therapeutic horseback riding program that takes place at Southern Delaware Therapeutic Riding in Milton.
“Our high school-aged students are given the opportunity to ride horses at Southern Delaware Therapeutic with permission from their parents/guardians,” said Pam Graves, vocational coordinator at the Sussex Consortium. “Prior to COVID-19 in the 2019-20 school year, we had 23 students who participated, with two students going twice a week on a rotating schedule. Because of COVID, we have not been able to go to the farm this year, but I know our students are really looking forward to going back.”
