Locations

Over The Rainbow brings the horses to the riders.  The horses are stabled at Sixes.  They are transported to Port Orford/Bandon, Gold Beach and Brookings so that all eligible individuals in Curry County have access to the program.

Brookings

Brookings riders are currently participating with riders in Gold Beach, due to lack of arena.

Gold Beach

Riding sessions are held at the enclosed arena at Myers Ranch on Cedar Bend just north of Gold Beach on Tuesdays.

Port Orford/Bandon

The North Curry riding session is now being held at the covered arena at Oldden Mews Ranch on Beach Loop Road in Bandon on Saturday mornings. This new location makes it possible to ride in inclement weather.

"Benefits of this program that I see:
   1. Increased independence in movement.
   2. Carrying through tasks.
   3. Great joy in children who enjoy being up on a horse - sometimes there is not much pleasure in their
      everyday lives.
   4. More capable kids progressing from needing two side-walkers to riding with only a horse handler.
   5. Kids develop a leisure skill -- something that other kids do; they're able to join horseback riding
      activities with family members and friends."
