Greystone Manor Therapeutic Riding Center (GMTRC), a nonprofit organization with a mission to enhance the lives of individuals with special needs through equine-assisted activities, held an event to honor 18 volunteers on June 5. The Carol Henkel Memorial Winners' Circle event was sponsored by Primitives by Kathy, which also donated gift bags for the honorees.

GMTRC's volunteers, who help with lessons, training, special events, and facilities maintenance, were critical in helping GMTRC through the COVID-19 pandemic. The 18 volunteers honored at the event gave a total of more than 150 hours of service in 2020.

Located in Upper Leacock Township, GMTRC has 11 therapeutic horses and six certified instructors who serve people with varying cognitive, physical, emotional, and developmental diagnoses. For information on becoming a volunteer, visit http://www.greystonemanortrc.org.
