Horses for Hope Turns Jasper Springs Ranch into a Day of Family Fun

There’s something about the smell of hay and the soft snort of a horse that makes an afternoon feel unhurried. At Jasper Springs Ranch in Fayetteville, that unhurried feeling comes wrapped in a fundraiser that doubles as one of the more heartfelt days on the NWA calendar. Anna Roan Ministries opens its gates for a stretch of horse rides, pony painting, and community connection, all in service of a mission that puts kids and families first.

THE DEETS

Saddle Up for a Full Day of Activities

You’ll find horse rides topping the list of things to do, and plenty else besides. Paint a pony, spend time with miniature horses, or try your hand at brushing and braiding a horse’s hair. Stop by the petting area with goats, or fill extra time with lawn games and a photo booth. Stick around for live music, and take your shot at the silent auction if you’re after something extra for a good cause.

More Than a Day at the Ranch

Horses for Hope is Anna Roan Ministries’ annual fundraiser, and when you pay for admission or bid in the silent auction, you’re putting money toward equine experiences for children and families in need.

Food is available to purchase separately, so plan to grab a bite while you’re there. Bring the family, and find the full event details on Facebook.
