Volunteer Recognition and Beyond

ASPIRE hosted it's Volunteer Recognition dinner Thursday evening.   It is always a night to remember.  A number of people came out to support the volunteers, riders and our wonderful horses.   A special thanks to our wonderful board members, Harold Getty, Kim Ihlenfeldt, and Larry Scura for supporting ASPIRE.  We truly appreciate your attendance and enjoy your presence.   A wonderful thanks and gratitude to our great staff, Bobbi, Jen, Jenna for being there to support all volunteers, riders, board and sponsors.   We appreciate them and look forward to working with them again this year.   Great team!   Thanks to Cindy Kline for all the help this year to help guide and teach our new staff.   Congratulations Cindy on Volunteer of the Year.  We could not have made it through this year without you.   Congratulations Jeff Porter on Barn Volunteer of the Year!  ASPIRE just wouldn't be the same without you and your mom keeping the barn clean and our horses healthy.   Erika our beautiful horse of the year!   Can't wait for her trading card!!    She truly is my sweet lady!   Thank you to my precious grandchildren Kameron and Autumn for helping to hand out the gifts to staff!  Thanks to everyone that helped decorate, cook, serve, and cleanup.   Thanks Craig for making it so easy to find our way around the kitchen.   You are a true blessing!   ASPIRE would not be the same without each and everyone of our great volunteers, staff, riders, horses, sponsors, board, interns and our families to support us.   Please join us in saying a warm thanks to all of those involved in making this year a success.  Thank you Lord for blessing my life with all of the great and wonderful people.   As we think about 2012 I hope you will consider, riding, volunteer, making a donation or being an intern.  Your presence and dollars at ASPIRE is the future success of beautiful program.   God bless and have a wonderful weekend!
