Carolyn Huckshorn Equestrian Scholarship:

The Carolyn Huckshorn Equestrian Scholarship was created in memory of Carolyn Huckshorn, who passed away at age 96. Carolyn's daughter began riding horses as a child but eventually had to stop when riding lessons became too expensive. Years later, she returned to riding as an adult at JoyRide Equestrian and wanted to create an opportunity for another young person to experience the joy, confidence, and connection that horseback riding can provide.

Through this scholarship, Rearing2Read will provide two Rearing2Read students with the opportunity to participate in horseback riding lessons who might not otherwise have access to riding because of financial barriers.

The scholarship is funded through a generous annual contribution and is intended to provide support for a season of weekly horseback riding lessons and necessary riding equipment. Lessons will take place at JoyRide Equestrian in Pittsboro, NC. There will be a spring session, and a fall session. Students may re-apply for the scholarship between seasons.
