“The annual horse show is my favorite time of year,” said Tammy Stackhouse, founder of Magical Meadows. “The riders work tirelessly all year long to push themselves into new territories that is made possible through therapeutic horseback riding. Watching the joy on their faces as they perform in front of their friends and family is truly what it’s all about,” she added.
