Straight from ~~the Horse's~~ Jewel's Mouth

Hay there, friends!

It’s me—Jewel. We’re excited to invite you to our annual Barnyard Bash on Saturday, October 11th from 4–7 PM at Bit of Faith Ranch—a fun-filled evening with a meaningful purpose: supporting families impacted by autism.

Last year, thanks to your generosity, we raised nearly $20,000 to fund adaptive riding, equine-assisted learning, recreation outings, and caregiver respite. Your support brings joy, confidence, and community to the families we serve.

This year’s Bash will be even bigger—with live music, dancing, outdoor games, raffles, food and drinks, a mechanical bull, and of course, a meet-and-greet with our beloved horses (like me, Jewel!). Don’t forget to dress your best for the western attire contest!

Whether you attend, become a sponsor, or help spread the word, your support makes all the difference.

Exciting Progress on the Barn Remodel at Bit of Faith Ranch!

Big things are happening at Bit of Faith Ranch! Our barn remodel is well underway, and we’re thrilled about how it’s transforming the space for our riders, families, volunteers—and even our horses.

A highlight of the project is our new multipurpose area, designed to host gatherings, activities, and special events that deepen community connections. We got a glimpse of its impact during last month’s Foam Cannon Open House, where families came together to cool off, connect, and celebrate.

The remodel also benefits our four-legged team. Improved stall design means healthier, drier conditions for our horses, keeping them comfortable and ready to serve.

This renovation is more than just construction—it’s a meaningful step forward in our mission to create a welcoming, inclusive, and enriching environment for everyone at the Ranch. We can’t wait to show you the finished space!

Laughs, Chocolate & Lasting Friendships

Last month, in addition to our fun movie outing, we hosted a heartwarming Moms + Caregivers Roundup, treating our incredible caregiver community to a night out featuring comedian Amy Barnes and a sweet social at Kilwins. It was an evening filled with laughter, connection, and well-deserved relaxation for those who give so much in caring for loved ones with disabilities.
