Reins of Life is hosting our 4th annual driving show on Sunday, July 20, 2025, in Michigan City, Indiana! We hope to see many familiar faces, as well as new ones at this event which is free to come watch! If you own a horse and drive, please consider joining us with your horse to compete at a low-key and welcoming show in a variety of classes. If you don't have your own horse, you can still come out and cheer on the competitors, including some of Reins of Life's therapeutic driving students as they compete and show off their skills!

We want to give a huge shout out to our friends at Lippert! Last week, they spent time at our South Bend barn working on a few painting projects. Our pavilion and front entrance look beautiful! We are so grateful for their hard work!

Hello to our Reins family!

You may have already heard that we are participating in the Michigan City Patriotic Parade this weekend. The parade is on Saturday the 28th at 11:00 AM.

Students and volunteers from both of our facilities are welcome to join us for this event! We will have both a horse drawn wagon and a covered parade wagon being pulled by our truck for people to ride on. For those who prefer walking for either all or part of the parade we would love your help passing out candy and information about how to get involved at Reins of Life to the crowd!

If you have already let us know that you are joining us, we look forward to seeing you, If you haven't yet told us you were coming please let us know so we have a good count of how many people to expect and know who to look out for.

We also have our Entry Number 84B and lineup directions to share with everyone!

Our group will be staging on Pine St., between 4th St. & 5th St. (see map)

Vehicles that are NOT participating in the parade may NOT enter the staging area. If you have people walking in the parade, they can park outside the staging area on an adjacent side street or be dropped off near Pine St. from an adjacent side street. Vehicles will not be allowed in the staging area to drop off participants.

We will have the wagons there a bit earlier to get them in place and finish the decorations but for those joining for the parade please meet us in our staging area between 10:00 and 10:15 Central Time to get settled in and find a spot on the wagon etc. The organizers want us to have everyone in place by 10:30.

Thanks so much and we look forward to seeing everyone Saturday!

PATH International, our accrediting body, recently shared the most recent fact sheet listing how many Certified Instructors there are in each discipline and we are always surprised by how underutilized Interactive Vaulting and Therapeutic Driving are!

Since adding Interactive Vaulting and Therapeutic Driving to the program offerings at Reins we have been able to offer high quality services to an even more diverse group of participants. This alone is of significant importance but the value to our center has extended further than just that. It has helped increase fitness and prevent burnout in our horses due to a more varied workload. It has empowered volunteers to learn something new and offered them additional ways to use their skills within our program. It has also enabled new partnerships within our local communities and brought in new funding sources. We could continue...

Because Reins of Life believes so strongly in the value of program diversification and of Interactive Vaulting and Therapeutic Driving we are proud to be hosting PATH Intl Workshop and Certification events for Interactive Vaulting this summer and Therapeutic Driving this fall.

Go to the PATH Intl website for requirements for these certifications or to register one of the upcoming events. That is all handled through the PATH office.

Please feel free to let us know if you have any questions about the Interactive Vaulting or Therapeutic Driving programs at Reins of Life.

We genuinely believe in the value of adding either, or both, of these options to the program offerings at other centers and if you have been thinking about it we would encourage you to do it. 😉
