It was recently brought to our attention that our last blog entry came in September of last year. That made us immediately
do a bit of a double take-- September? Of 2008? Really?
There's always so much happening here at the Grace Foundation
so it seemed unreal we'd go so long without updating our blog. But that's probably part of the problem, when you think
about it. We went so long without updating our blog BECAUSE there's always so much happening.
Anyway, please accept
our sincerest apology. We didn't forget about our readers-- honest!
As you might expect, plenty of changes have
happened at the ranch since September. It's a little tough to choose where to start.
The big "thing" at
the ranch right now is the horse care video series we've been working on. Yes, you read that correctly-- a video series
devoted entirely to horse care. It might sound like a lot of work... and it is. But given the way our economy is forcing the
modern horse owner to adapt, there's a definite need for something like this.
Basically, this project is a video
series covering everything a new or veteran horse owner needs to know about taking care of their hoofed friend. And much to
our surprise, there's nothing else out there even remotely similar to this.
We've brought on two new team members
(Michael and Jim, the two guys with cameras) to help us with this project, so say "Hi!" if you happen to see them
wandering around at the ranch. But with each passing day, we just get more and more done. So expect to see The Essential
Guide to Horse Care soon!
We're also getting ready for a big public service announcement about our HERO
project. In case you don't remember, the HERO project is an owner outreach program which educates horse caregivers, provides
little to no cost medical care, even shelter to recovered horses. Just like our video series, the HERO project becomes much
more important by the way.
A big "Thank you!" to the Humane Society of the United States for helping
us with HERO!
The final big project we're planning is a reality TV show about life at the ranch. We're still
in the discussion phase of this but we know the Grace Foundation is the perfect subject for a reality TV show-- on a daily
basis, our volunteers see life and death, joy and sorrow, humor and drama. So stay tuned to your TVs for more!
That's
about all the time we have for right now. Duty calls! But thanks for reading and, as always, thank you for all of your help--
whether it's a nice letter or monetary donation, every little bit helps as we strive to make the world a better place
for all living things.
