Thank you to all our selfless volunteers who make Urban Stable a great place to learn and grow! Urban Stable wouldn’t be possible without you. 

As part of our Facebook livestream 50/50 draw event on April 22, 2021, we presented our L.E.A.D.S Volunteer Awards, recognizing a few of the incredible people who help make Urban Stable happen. 

Congratulations and thank you to this year’s recipients:

Leadership – Lisa 
Empathy – Karen
Adventurous – Krystal
Dedication – Kim
Service – Elisabeth

Lisa – started as a student in our School Program, joined our Alumni Program, and became a volunteer Leader In Training helping younger students with their horses. Lisa fit very naturally into her role helping younger students and she has become a strong and competent leader. 

Karen – began by volunteering in our School Program and for the last few years has been volunteering in our Alumni Program. Karen’s empathy for the students and horses she works with shines through as she makes the people around her feel comfortable and capable. 

Krystal – started as a student in our School Program, joined our Alumni Program, became a volunteer Leader In Training helping younger students with their horses, and volunteered helping campers in our summer program for a number of years. By nature Krystal is quieter, but you can see her adventurous spirit in all these challenges she has taken on and conquered.

Kim – our longest serving School Program volunteer. Kim is so dedicated to the students and the Urban Stable program that she’s been with us for over 6 years. She reliably supports and challenges her students and the students know they can count on Kim to be there for them.

Elisabeth – started by volunteering in our School Program and when she took on her volunteer role she wasn’t messing around. She didn’t just volunteer for one class, but came to 2-3 classes a week, supporting and giving back to the youth in her community. For the last number of years Elisabeth has volunteered in our Alumni Program and her commitment to service is as strong as ever, she often gives her whole Saturday to our Alumni to support them and help them grow.
