On Friday, September 8, Discovery Riders in Bellefontaine held their Annual Equestrian Special Olympics event. There were 12 participants and 7 classes. Eric Walker was the only participant from Champaign County; most of the riders were from Logan and Union Counties. Eric participated in two classes: Western Equitation Walk Supported and Trail Walk/Trot Supported. He placed first in Western Equitation and second in Trail.
A big thank you to all the volunteers that help with the Therapeutic Riding throughout the year.
