Equine therapist, Olaf, taking a nap during the lunch break. He rests his head on the fence and falls asleep. A beautiful day out at Brady. All clients were stellar. Volunteers were rock stars. Next time, more action pics. Had our hands full today!

It's easy to understand why children and horses get a long. And, how horses can bring out the joy in adults. Joy brings healing, love of life and laughter.

I had the wonderful honor of meeting James S. Brady when I was 15. He gave my mother and I his blessing and permission to use his name for our riding program. He was full of humor, kindness and positivity. I am showing him pictures of the children in our program and the events we held in his honor. I will never forget his presence and warmth. God rest your beautiful soul, Mr. Brady. Thank you for the light and leadership you gave your country and the sacrifice you made so many years ago.

Every child is whole. Where there is stigma, where there is fear, where there is shadow, love can light the way and break the barriers. And, there is nothing like the love that shines from the nose, nuzzle and lift of the horse.

After all that rain, Brady Riding is a go! The sun is out in Golden Gate Park, the birds are singing their morning chorus, the ponies, Olaf and Daisy, will arrive soon. Put on your boots, it may be a little wet out there.
Good morning, Brady friends! Looking forward to all the pony inspired smiles and hugs that will make this day even more beautiful. Come and see the love in action from 10-2:30 today at Bercut Field in Golden Gate Park!

Our annual "Polo In the Park" fundraiser was featured here!

Polo remains a game of the rich but money attracts money and that is why polo is an ideal candidate for charities.
