CALENDAR of EVENTS
Celebrate Western Style at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library
Mark your calendars and join us on September 27th 2008, from 6pm onwards for our annual fundraising event in the Air Force One Pavilion at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. Enjoy an evening of Western Movie nostalgia, great live music and a catered dinner beneath the wings of Air Force One.
 The Air Force One Pavilion sits on top of the hills in Simi Valley with beautiful views of the valleys and ocean. It is the perfect setting for a late summer event and we are looking forward to welcoming you to this wonderful new venue for Ride On.
We are excited to announce that our celebrity dinner host will be actor Bruce Boxleitner and our celebrity auctioneer for the evening will be Carl Bell, KNBC’s weatherman and we have some fantastic live music lined up for your entertainment. Guests will dine beneath the Air Force One Presidential Plane and there will also be a live and silent auction.
Tickets are $200 per person or $1600 for a table of 8. All proceeds from the event will go directly towards helping us put more children and adults with disabilities on horseback and building our new home. Corporate and table sponsorships are also available - please call Sara Jones at 805.375.9078 for more information.
Westlake Village Junior Women's Club Donate $15,000
We are delighted to announce that the Westlake Village Junior Women's Club presented Ride On with a check for $15,000 to purchase rubber footing for the barn in Thousand Oaks . The bricks will provide a level, cushioned surface which will benefit both our riders and horses, they will also drastically reduce the dust in the barn and will look very smart! We are very grateful to the Westlake Village Junior Women's Club for their generosity. The bricks will be installed by the beginning of our Fall Session which starts on September 9th - come by and visit the barn and check them out!
