Free Again Celebration
Howdy from Austin, Texas, home of great music, wonderful food, friendly people & amazing wildflowers --
this is just a quick note which will only apply to a handful of you, but the rest of you can "listen" in ...ok?
The Phantom's release date was chosen for many reasons. Two of the most important are that the grass should be sweet and plentiful then (making it less likely there will be stallion fights) and midweek, the entire ranch staff will be on hand to see that the Phantom, Pride, Shy and the rest of the horse family make it safely into the sanctuary.
On weekends, riders are guided into the high country on horseback by ranch wranglers and their $ Donation to the sancutary for these rides, overnight accomodations and meals help pay the wild horses' expenses.
Some parents have been frustrated that this is a mid-week release and I do understand, but this will be an educational experience. Tell you what...I'm a credentialed secondary teacher and if any of you want to propose this as a field trip, I'll be glad to email your teachers about the value of this event, and sign a note if that will help.
Happy Wednesday,
Terri
