One Step Closer to Completing the Dream

A major MVHR "Complete the Dream" Capital Campaign goal is about to come true. The Rhea Bigelow Charitable Trust has committed to funding construction on the Rhea Bigelow Charitable Trust Legacy Barn at MVHR. This indoor arena, barn, office, and multi-use facility will be informally known as "Robin's Nest". 

This has been a dream of MVHR's since moving to our permanent home in McCoy in 2016. Currently, horse training and socialization comes to a near halt during any inclement weather, especially during the challenging winter months. This means that dozens of horses on the wait list are postponed the opportunity for help and support, while those at the Rescue await the skills they need to find forever homes. A barn with an indoor arena will change all that, and allow for expanded and year-round human education programs. 

Excavation is scheduled to begin this month with plans for completion by next winter. The Board and Staff are finalizing plans, preparing for the project start, and dancing for joy! Stay tuned for more information in future newsletters.
