Naples Therapeutic Riding Center

We were thrilled to have some our Summer Muckers join us today for an appreciation luncheon at Food & Thought.

These dedicated volunteers help care for our herd of 16 horses, tackling the important daily work that keeps our barn running smoothly. Their hard work, positive attitudes, and willingness to jump in wherever needed make a tremendous difference.

Quite simply, we couldn't do it without them. Thank you for all you do for our horses, our riders, and the entire NTRC family! ❤️🐴

Behind every rider is a team of people who show up consistently, quietly, and with purpose.

Our volunteers are not just helping. They are part of the process.

They create stability, encouragement, and connection that allows each rider to feel supported and capable.

If you’ve been looking for a way to give back in a meaningful way, this is where that impact starts.

Comment “VOLUNTEER” and we’ll send you more information.

What Tamara shared with us truly brightened this rainy afternoon. ❤️

We are so grateful for the families who allow NTRC to be part of their journey and trust our team, volunteers, and horses along the way. Watching riders grow in confidence, connection, patience, and independence is why this work means so much.

Thank you, Tamara, for sharing Harry’s story with such kindness. We are honored to be part of it and look forward to continuing this journey with him through summer camp! 🐴

Let’s end the season strong! ❤️🐴

This week, we are celebrating Trophy Week, one of the most meaningful times of the riding season. Our riders are being recognized for their hard work, growth, and progress, and it is such a joy to see them finish the season feeling proud. Pictured are some of our dedicated riders after their last 25-26' lessons.

Saturday will be our final lesson day of the season, and we are looking for a few volunteer leaders to help make it a great one.

Volunteering this Saturday means helping riders feel supported, celebrated, and safe as they finish the year. It also means getting to witness some of the best moments of the season, from proud families to riders receiving their trophies.

If you are a volunteer leader and are available, please sign up in CERVIS or contact James Kintz, Volunteer Manager.

Not a leader but still want to help? Please reach out.

Thank you for another incredible year.❤️
