Heritage Day in Egg Harbor Township 2010

Atlantic Riding Center for Health is always looking to participate in and around the community we serve. As part of our community outreach, ARCH participated in a live demo of our therapy horses at work.

In-house Horse Show 2010
Every year Atlantic Riding Center for Health puts on our own in-house horse show where our riders can demonstrate skills developed in our program. As you can imagine, it is something our riders, staff, volunteers and horses really look forward to!
