ASAP wants to recognize and thank Marie K. for her willingness to
transport horses when needed, with short notice.
This past weekend was a very busy one, as ASAP was urged to remove a mare
from a home where she risked having a bullet put through her brain. With
the help of Stephanie and Amber, we easily loaded her and took her to a
foster farm (which has quickly become an adoptive placement for each horse
he has fostered!) with Pete M. in West Salem. The horses he has adopted
include Sadie, Ginger, Sugar, and Gym Knoll Tons, and now Brandy the new
mare. I must say that the sight of the mares galloping up over the hill
to greet the newcomer was amazing. All the horses look so great, and we
are thankful for Pete who seems to be there when we need him most! A new boarder came to ASAP......and by boarding we are able to keep
supporting the horses who come to us when donated from the track or
private owner. Marie was gracious to transport for only the cost of fuel
so now Mr. Sandman is safe and sound here at ASAP as well. Marie came
with donations, a much-needed helmet for our day campers and students, and
Andis clipper attachments. This has to be GOD! I say that because as I
was getting my clippers out to get horses ready for the horse fair, the
head of the clippers fell, never to be found again (guess I need a metal
detector)...! So the fact that Deb (?) donated these when she sent
Sandman (or Marie?) was more than by chance. Now our clippers are
complete! We are still waiting for adoption fees from two horses. We need these in
order to pay for the electricity in our booth. This rate goes up after
today if we are not able to pay the $100. We want to thank a fairly
anonymous adopter who donated $50 towards the cost of things!!! Maybe this week will continue to be a week of miracles. Sue
