Why Become a Volunteer

	For that last 26 years I have worked from home for my husband’s business while raising our two children. My son is 26 years old, has graduated with a degree in engineering and has his own home. My daughter is 22 years old, has a full time job and lives at home. So needless to say I have done my job in raising these two fine adults and was searching for something to fill my void. I have felt for some time now that I needed to do something for myself. I wasn’t sure what it was but knew that it was more than working out, shopping at the mall or going out to lunch with a friend. A while back I heard a statement that struck me. ”Do something for yourself, volunteer!” At first I really did not grasp the meaning behind this. Well, can you guess what happened next? I was asked to help out at Victory Reins and was a little hesitant at first, being somewhat fearful of the horses and not quite sure of what I was getting myself into. With a little coaching and encouragement from the staff I have really enjoyed becoming a volunteer! During my time there I have met some great young ladies who volunteer, take riding lessons and do a number of chores at the barn. I get to help out with Ethan, Sonny and Georgia during their lessons. The time passes so quickly because they are such a joy to work with. It is obvious why the kids at Victory Reins are so wonderful. You just have to meet their parents and it all makes sense. They are loving, caring and involved in their children’s lives. Victory Reins has turned out to be a blessing in my life and an answer to prayer! Deb
