Family Residences and Essential Enterprises will offer therapeutic-horseback-riding sessions for people with physical and mental disabilities. The classes will be offered at the Samuel Austrian Memorial Riding Arena at Middle Island's Saddle Rock Ranch. According to the organization, many individuals who are unable to respond to traditional therapies react positively when an animal is involved.
