Volunteer Spotlight: Sarah Locker
In 2014, Sarah started as a Barn Aide volunteer and has completed additional training to serve as a Pony Rides Assistant, an Equestrian Arena Assistant, and an Equestrian Trail Guide. "I enjoy the physical aspect of volunteering," says Sarah. "You'll definitely get your daily steps in if you help with Pony Rides."
Sarah's job as a school therapist allows her to have summers off, and most days, she can be found helping as an Arena Assistant volunteer. Arena Assistants support staff during riding lessons and summer camps. "I love sharing my interest in horses with others, and I learn something new in every class", says Sarah. Her favorite thing about volunteering is socializing with the staff and other volunteers. "Everyone is so friendly and welcoming." While Sarah enjoys working with all the horses, she has a special place in her heart for Duncan and Biscuit.
Sarah Locker has become a staple at the Carriage Hill Riding Center. "Sarah is an amazing volunteer who always goes above and beyond. She is someone that we know we can rely on, and we are always excited to have her come out and help," says Christine Northrup, Equestrian Technician at Carriage Hill.
