Ranch Work Day

We will kick off the day at 10:00 with a prayer followed by a divying of tasks. Some of the tasks we have require experience but most of them do not. 

We will have a first wave of volunteers working from 10:00 - noon, and a second wave working from 2:00-5:00. You are welcome to show up and offer as much or as little time as you have available. 

We also have a variety of administrative tasks that need to be completed in preparation for our Open House, if you would like to help but can't come in person. We are also looking for a riding demo volunteer - if you are interested, please contact Katie at bostonmountainyouthranch@gmail.com for more details.
