Muzzle 2 Tail therapeutic riding holds carnival to raise awareness

Muzzle 2 Tail Horsemanship and Therapeutic Riding Center hosted a carnival July 6, with the proceeds going toward special needs families.

Located at 8883 Clendaniel Pond Road in Lincoln, Muzzle 2 Tail specializes in one-on-one horsemanship, therapeutic riding and ground lessons to children and adults with special needs. Instructors are certified with Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International.

Owner Shelby Givens said the center, which opened in May, was dedicated to her son, Cade Meyer.

“Today was a fun family event,” said Givens. “We were doing a little charitable event, a carnival, with a bounce house, Royalty Cocktail Services, good food, carnival games, a train donated by Southern Grill, and we were helped out by Children’s Beach House.”

While the event was free to the public, donations were accepted, with all proceeds going toward Muzzle 2 Tail’s operational expenses. For more information, go to muzzle2tail.org.
