As we welcome the Year of the Horse, we celebrate the extraordinary partners who make our mission possible; the horses who inspire strength, confidence, and connection every single day.
Through every stride, they help riders discover courage, independence, and joy. Hereโ€™s to a year of progress, partnership, and the incredible magic that happens between horse and rider. ๐ŸŽโœจ

โœจ Volunteer Spotlight โœจ

You may have heard of Superman, but have you heard of Super Dave?

Known for his ability to fix, build, and brighten our campus, Dave is leaving a lasting mark at NTRC. He is famous for his โ€œone finger push,โ€ a simple way to show the precision behind his work. With just a gentle touch, our gates now swing smoothly and latch properly, creating safer and more efficient movement throughout the property for our riders, volunteers, and staff.

Pictured here with the beautifully wrapped new โ€œTโ€ posts he handcrafted for our lessons, Daveโ€™s attention to detail is evident in everything he does. If you have stepped into our office recently, you have seen his impact there as well. Through a fresh coat of paint, he has completely transformed the space, turning what was once brown into a bright, welcoming environment.

We are deeply grateful for the time, talent, and care Dave brings to our campus!

Weโ€™re pleased to share the beginning of a new collaboration between Naples Therapeutic Riding Center and Keiser University Naples.

This partnership will provide educational and volunteer experiences for students enrolled at Keiser University Naples, creating opportunities for hands-on learning, professional development, and meaningful community engagement. By connecting academic pathways with real-world service, this collaboration supports student growth while advancing NTRCโ€™s mission.

Thank you to the Keiser University Naples team for welcoming us to campus for a tour and collaborative discussions as we begin shaping this initiative.

This is an exciting first step, and we look forward to sharing more as this partnership develops.

Just a week ago, Naples Therapeutic Riding Center had the honor of participating in three meaningful events as part of The Naples Winter Wine Festival, a cornerstone celebration hosted by the Naples Childrenโ€™s Foundation (NCF) that directly supports organizations like ours and the children we serve.

Throughout the week, NTRC proudly showed up in different ways:
โ€ข Meet the Kids Day โ€“ Colton, Madison, and Taj were outstanding representatives of NTRC, sharing their stories with patrons through heartfelt conversations, hugs, and paper hearts filled with meaning.
โ€ข Vintner Dinner at the Stock Residence โ€“ Guests were welcomed with joyful greetings from mini horses Itty Bitty and Raisin, creating a fun and interactive ranch experience. Thank you to Linda Malone for the invitation to participate and Brian Stock for welcoming our team.
โ€ข Live Auction Volunteer Support โ€“ Marc, Christian, and Michelle volunteered during the Live Auction, supporting one of the most extraordinary moments of the Festival.

With NCFโ€™s support, children with special needs find strength, confidence, and joy through equine-assisted services. Every gift through NCF multiplies this impact, empowering vulnerable children with healing and growth across Collier County.

We are deeply grateful to NCF, its patrons, volunteers, and partners for their continued commitment to improving lives across Southwest Florida. Being part of this event is truly an honor. ๐Ÿ’›

Today, we honor and remember Snickers, a beloved member of the Naples Therapeutic Riding Center family, who passed peacefully at the remarkable age of 31 earlier this week.

Snickers gave so much of herself during her years at NTRC, touching countless lives with her gentle spirit. After a long and meaningful career, she enjoyed a well-earned retirement at Camp Rusk, where she spent nearly eight years surrounded by open pastures, sunshine, and the comfort she so deeply deserved.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Jill and Alex, whose generous donation of Snickers years ago made her journey with NTRC possible. Their kindness helped shape a life of service, impact, and love that will never be forgotten in our community.

Naples Therapeutic Riding Center offers support to riders, families, and volunteers who may be grieving or who wish to share memories of Snickers. If you would like to talk or share a story, please call us at 239-596-2988.

Naples Therapeutic Riding Center is proud to welcome Jessica Hallock as our Development Director.

When we asked Jessica to tell us about herself, she shared:
โ€œIโ€™m a Naples native whoโ€™s thrilled about this new chapter in my career and the opportunity to give back to the community where I was born and raised. I bring over 15 years of experience across business development, relationship management, marketing, communications, and event management, with a career rooted in building connections and helping organizations grow in thoughtful, people-first ways.

Over the years, Iโ€™ve had the chance to work across different areas of the financial services space, collaborating with teams, clients, and community partners to support growth, strengthen relationships, and bring ideas to life. I love work thatโ€™s dynamic, collaborative, and centered on creating real impactโ€”especially here in Southwest Florida.

Iโ€™m a Florida Gulf Coast University alum ( !), and staying connected to this area has always been important to me, both personally and professionally.

Outside of work, youโ€™ll usually find me spending time with my loved ones, getting lost in a good book, or enjoying all the natural beauty Naples has to offer. Iโ€™m also a proud mom to an amazing 5-year-old daughter and a very energetic 2-year-old golden retriever who keeps life fun and busy.

Fun facts โ€” I grew up playing the harp, and I am a left-handed golfer! Canโ€™t disclose my handicap thoughโ€ฆ LOLโ€

We are thrilled to have Jessica join the NTRC team and look forward to the relationships, creativity, and community impact she will help grow.

Winning Scouting for a Cause brings meaningful visibility to our mission and the life-changing programs happening on our campus every day. As we look ahead to our 30th anniversary in 2027, opportunities like this help us build momentum to serve more children and adults, engage more volunteers, and connect more families to equine-assisted services.
