I'm new to the message board, and would love to help out with the SAFE horses. I live in the Seattle area. I am happy to help groom, bathe, muck stalls, turn out, and maybe ride! I owned a QH-Morgan gelding and rode hunter-jumper, sometimes western, and he pulled a sleigh as well. I miss being around horses and if you have a need for another volunteer, please let me know. Thanks!

Hi... my daughter Samantha filled out a volunteer form yesterday........she would like to volunteer in Monroe, I do know some of you, I was an old member.... I just prefer to help privately now......however I am excited to support Sam in her volunteer work. Sam, believe it or not does not spend time on the computer so she asked that I join and keep her up on what she needs to know.........however she did research SAFE liked what she saw and chose to volunteer here instead of one of the other rescues in the area. I am also a SAFE fan so was pleased with her decision......is there an orientation I need to bring her to, she though there was. Look forward to hearing from you.

welcome redhorses! I am the volunteer coordinator and I would love to work it out so that we can get her out to help. I hope you'll both find this very rewarding. I sent back a reply via email & we can work out the details but please feel free to post here. This is an amazing community!!! Thank you for both for wanting to help our SAFE horses Jet

Hey everyone! I just signed up for volunteering myself. I used to work for some horse stables and owned a horse for a tiny bit and haven't worked with them since. Miss it terribly! If money wasn't an issue I'd be working at a barn for free! Anyways right now I'm doing a lot of volunteering for dog rescues. I've photographed a lot for the WA German Shepherd rescue and CJ's Last Chance Pets. I'll be photographing for another Rescue this Saturday. I also do some web designing. If you're interested in checking out the photos please visit my site silivrenwolfphotography.com The issue I do have however is I work 9-5:30 M-F but would consider taking some time off if weekends are taken up.

Emily - I should be home on Tuesday. I've had to go into the office more frequently these days because of a project at work but tomorrow I am planning on staying home as I have to haul Ariel to Pilchuck to get her hernia surgery. Allison is our Tuesday person and she comes in the evenings after work. She usually works with Cedar but if you wanted to work Miss that would be great...I actually have someone coming to meet her next Sunday so the more rides she can get in this week, the better. I am hoping Leah has time to work her today as well.

Emily - if you can get started with paddocks, I know that would be a great help, because now by the time Allison gets there it will be dark. I've cleaned paddocks in the past with a headlamp, but its not as fun. Merlin is going home tomorrow (he's all healed!) and Summer will be returning. Dory is going to stay at Merlin's house as a foster.

Have fun Emily!
Kind of OT - I am out of commission for a while with a knee injury, so I cannot ride or clean stalls. I can however check references and make phone calls etc. If you need any administrative assistance or anything, really, that doesn't involve bending my knee for the next 5 weeks (at least), then I'm your girl! ;D
