The third annual Horses for Harbor Hospice event, a unique horse trail riding experience, is set to take place Saturday, Sept. 21, to benefit the Bob and Merle Scolnik Healing Center.
This event is planned by Melissa DeWitt, a dedicated CENA at Harbor Hospice, and hosted by the Muskegon County Trail Riders Association, located on Hall Road in Muskegon.
This year’s event aims to raise funds and awareness for the Harbor Hospice Foundation, supporting the compassionate and life-changing grief support programs and services provided by the Bob and Merle Scolnik Healing Center.
The event goes from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Registration is open now at harborhospicemi.org. The cost to participate is $35, which includes lunch, a trail ride with your horse, a t-shirt and entry for door prizes.
A slew of activities are planned for the day, including trail riding with your horse, hay rides, a silent auction, a 50/50 raffle, face painting and more.
“The Horses for Harbor Hospice event is a day to enjoy the beauty of nature and the companionship of horses, all while supporting a cause that provides crucial support to those navigating grief,” DeWitt said in a press release. “It’s a day for equestrians, families, and friends to come together for fun and philanthropy.”
Involvement helps ensure the Harbor Hospice Foundation can continue to offer essential grief support services to those in need. The Bob and Merle Scolnik Healing Center provides a sanctuary for individuals and families, offering resources and programs to help them through their grief journey.
