Equine Assisted Learning

It was another amazing day at the Air Force Academy! We had veterans and their family members learning about the benefits of Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) from our instructor, Jennie. She conducted a few series of EAL exercises to help our group understand more about this therapy and its benefits. It was also a little special for one of our family members. As with all of our EAL sessions, it was followed by a nice, enjoyable horseback ride.

Art Class - Clay Workshop

It was a fun class for all working with our hands, sculpting clay and creating whatever we happen to be feeling in the moment. As we get into shaping the clay, our instructor puts on some soothing music to relax and enhance our creativity.  We finish our clay creations with paint, giving them even more depth and character. Each piece will be placed in the kiln and we will see the final finished pieces next week.  A great class and a big thanks to our instructor Natalie and the staff at Art Students League of Denver.

Antelope Hunt

Our day started out at sunrise and it was a beautiful way to begin. We were met by our guides who divided us into smaller groups to give each individual the best opportunity to fill their Antelope tags. And it worked out perfectly! Everyone was able to fill their tags and put some meat into their freezers. New skills were learned and new friends were made! Thank you to our guides Brad and Eli Weisensee, Scott Maranville, Lane Clavel and Russell Maclennan for securing the land vouchers and setting up the hunt. Our veterans had a memorable experience thanks to your time, effort and expertise. It was greatly appreciated by all!
