Dear members of the Exceptional Riders Program family,

We are excited to be back in full swing at Rising Hope Equestrian Center, 2787 Quick Road Harbor Springs, MI 49740-9344.

We are following the CDC and local guidelines to protect our students and volunteers. Wearing a mask is optional.

To maximize protection from COVID and prevent possibly spreading it to our students who have a weakened immune system or an underlying medical condition, please consider wearing a mask if you have NOT been vaccinated.

There are several ways you can help us to continue as a registered 501C3 non-profit program. Donations may be made through our Facebook page; our website; donating your pop can and bottle return receipts; or by mailing your grocery receipts from your local grocery stores such as Family Fare in Boyne City or Oleson’s in Petoskey. The receipts specifically state at the bottom “Direct Your Dollars: This ENTIRE receipt needs to be turned in to your favorite non-profit group a 501C3# and help them earn $1000.00”

Receipts should be mailed to:
Exceptional Riders Program TreasurerAttn: Greg Babcock
7326 North Street
Alanson, MI 49706-9232

And, finally, direct donations by check are also accepted. If you would prefer to donate in person please call (231) 420-2970 or (231) 838-3362.

Checks should be made payable to Exceptional Riders Program and mailed to:

It is time to rediscover the joys of riding and all that means to you, our family. It is wonderful to
hear those words...

Walk on!
