Horses For Handicap

posted Nov 8, 2011 11:16 AM by Bob Lee   [ updated Nov 8, 2011 11:34 AM ]

Once a week, on Saturday mornings, the Kiwanis Club’s Horses For Handicapped program gives kids in Pinellas County with a variety of physical ailments an opportunity to safely ride horses around a rink.

It’s a chance most of the children would never have without the program that was started 29 years ago at the Seminole Vocational Education Center.

The program, which is a Kiwanis District 13 activity, is funded by eight Kiwanis Clubs in lower Pinellas, south of Largo.

They include the Seminole club, Seminole Breakfast, Mid-town St. Petersburg, St. Petersburg, Sunshine City, Pinellas Park, Gulf Beaches and Suncoast In Action.
