Many thanks to the numerous volunteers who have become regulars here at Lone Oak Rescue.

Our list of chores and projects remains full and we always need more hands. Our construction projects need to be completed. Below are our top priorities.
Construct hay storage.
Place roof on open barn.
Construct additional shelters.
Someone with a small tractor/bucket to help level small areas .
Replace current runs with electric.
Install auto water buckets in barn.

We have a small group of volunteers who have been working grooming feeding and exercising the horses. Thank you all for being so great. Please contact us if you would like to be a part of that group, horse/riding experience is required for this group.

We are looking for dedicated persons to join our efforts. Please contact us if you are interested in the following positions. The majority of these hours are off site but we encourage on site participation as well.

- photo album management.
- volunteer coordinator
- fundraising coordinator
- website assistant

Thank you to all of you who have joined our efforts, we have several horses pending adoption which means we can help others. If you need assistance placing a horse please contact us, we have people looking for horses but do not have the suitable match for them.

Currently we have a need for a calm well trained horse for a family for arena and basic riding only, no competition or heavy riding. As well we have an individual looking for a gelding, trained and capable for packing/trails.

We are having a tack sale next week Sunday the 15th please join us we are still looking for donations, receipts for all items donated.

Watch for more fundraising events in the works, and please contact us with your fundraising suggestions. Together we can help more horses find the homes they deserve.
