Equine Voices Rescue & Sanctuary™ is a 501(c) 3 tax-exempt organization dedicated to saving Premarin (PMU) mares and foals from slaughter. Equine Voices also works with law enforcement agencies to provide services to abused, abandoned, and starving horses. Revenue from this event goes directly to the rescue, rehabilitation and recovery of horses in desperate need.
Gulliver, mascot of Equine Voices, will be at the event to tell his story of rescue and recovery, and will be available for pictures with horse lovers of all ages.
Oscar and Academy Award Winning author, Michael Blake;” Dances With Wolves” will make a special appearance and talk about the plight of America’s wild horses. Training demonstrations will feature rescued horses and the methods used in their recovery.
