Good for the soul

by Krystle Gehring, guest blogger

     I grew up with horses, and for the first time in years I didn’t have one. I moved here not knowing many people, and animals have always helped me get through life as a form of therapy. 
     I reached out to the community page for a way to just be around animals again, and was directed to Wings by a handful of people. I started volunteering pretty immediately. I have always loved ranch work and farm chores, it’s good for the soul! Each horse has its own story (some happy, some sad), and is uniquely different, it’s fun getting to know them. 
     We bring the kids out when we can and they absolutely love feeling like they are helping. It teaches them to care for the animals and is getting them ready for their own someday. Wings is amazing and I’m so honored to be a small part of what they do. I only wish I could do more.
