Previous Events

Horse Drawn Carriage Rides

Healing Heroes with Horses in conjunction with Oakfront Carriage Horse-Drawn Carriage Service. Oct 22, 2022 from 10-3 at 3903 Mahoning Rd, Diamond OH 44412.

We expanded our equine therapy programs this year to include a free horse drawn carriage ride event for veterans and their family.

Two rides happened each hour with around 12 riders each ride. The day's schedule was rides from 10 to 12, a break for the horses, then rides continued from 1 to 3. Snacks and Christmas bells for the children were also provided.

Oakfront Carriage is home to world champion Percheron horses and is famous for giving great horse drawn carriage rides. Many people have not had the pleasure of a carriage ride and really seemed to enjoy the experience.

This was a free event to veterans and their families.

Special thanks to Tom and Patty Reder for their hospitality.
