Therapeutic Riding At Centenary - TRAC

01/08/2026

Are you (or do you know) an individual veteran, immediate military family member, or a veterans group that may enjoy spending time with horses in 2026? If so, we'd love to connect and share info about TRAC's Veterans Program!

Activities are tailored to the needs and interests of the individual or group. Veterans and immediate military family members are never charged for participation. No prior horse experience required – just an open mind. Come have some fun and experience the joy and sense of connection that comes from spending time with horses!

Please reach out to Sergeant Corey Briggs, United States Marine Corps, Retired
Veterans Program Coordinator
