The Ride to
Equine Voices at Jump’n Jack Ranch-Amado,
Arizona
On November 14th
31 members and friends of the Chaparral Section of the MBCA met in
Tucson for a caravan to the “Pecan Store” in Sahuarita,
AZ. The short stop off at the Pecan Store gave all
attendees an appreciation for the history of Southern Arizona’s
pecan farm, one of the largest pecan farms in the nation—as
well as the chance to pick up fresh pecans for the holiday season.
After this short stop and chance to “load-up for the
holidays” we all departed for Equine Voices Rescue & Sanctuary
at Jump’n Jack Ranch. At the Ranch, we were met by Karen
Pomory, founder and President of Equine Voices. Karen gave us a very
interesting overview of the mission, challenges and successes of EV
at then conducted a very enlightening guided tour of the Ranch
operations. Unfortunately, we had to “tear”
ourselves away from the “ranch” to take the short drive to
Amado-Territory Ranch for lunch at Stockman’s
Grill. |
