The Mane Event
 
The plans for the Mane Event are finalized and we once again are able to offer the tickets for on $35 per person.  The ticket price covers costs for the event and HPS does not make any money on them.  This is our only large fundraiser for the year so we desperately depend upon your support.  We pray to have a packed Speedway Club to bid on the wonderful items offered at the live and silent auctions.  Please invite your friends that love to shop. 
 
One member shared that she did all her Christmas shopping there last year since there were so many wonderful things that could not be found easily elsewhere.  They are planning on doing their shopping at the Mane Event once again this year.
 
Please come to the Mane Event and help to make sure the horses receive the care they deserve,  If you reserve an entire table, we will have a place for you to display information about your business.  Or for anyone that would like to be a sponsor for $500 to $1000 we will display your business prominently.
 
Please send in your reservation as soon as possilbe.  We have to give the Speedway Club the reservation numbers by May 29th.

Construction of Second Barn Underway!
 
Construction of our second barn is underway and we are so excited! Completion of the project means we will finally be able to demolish the 100-year-old barn that is too dilapidated to repair again.  In April the electricity finally went out and the last windstorm blew another section off of the roof.  
 
There have been more calls about starving horses in fields than we have had in years due to the terrible drought that NC has been experiencing.  Many horses that we had placed into homes have returned and we currently have 45 residents to house and feed.
 
The second barn will have be 70' by 72' and will contain 26 stalls.  It will also have rubber mat flooring and shutters all around.  Garage doors will allow the horses entry from two sides of the barn.
 
We have received numerous donations and grant money to make this second barn a reality but still need funds to finish.  Please help us to provide good safe housing for the starved, abused, sick and abandoned horses at the sanctuary.
