Young Pepper is just turning 3, and has never
had any sort of riding work done with him previously. We hope you enjoy
this footage of his 2nd day riding, ever...including his first with
a youth rider, his first bareback, his first neck rope, and his first ride
with no bridle whatsoever!

About
us...Crosswinds is a 501c3 nonprofit horse rescue located near
Champaign & Danville Illinois.
We
are a membership organization. Our mission
is to rehabilitate, retrain and rehome at risk horses,
as
well as to aid in owner education to help ensure as many horses as
possible never need to be rescued at all.
GIFT MEMBERSHIPS: A caring gift, ANY time of the year...
Consider giving a Crosswinds membership
-- as a holiday gift, a birthday/wedding/anniversary gift, in memory of the loss of a beloved pet, or just because you care!
Please visit our membership page. We'll send you a tax deductible receipt, and your friend a letter letting them know of your generous gift, plus the new year's calendar and the most current newsletter, along with them then receiving all the benefits of membership all year long.

tons of feed, from a farm pickup truck to cash donations which add up to cover huge medical bills.

THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS: Crosswinds could not survive without
our incredible volunteers. We cannot begin to offer enough thanks to all our you, including
our morning feeding helpers, who come one day EVERY week. All our tireless helpers are always willing to lend a hand -- or a truck, a strong back, computer savvy, or anything else needed. We could not get along nearly so well without all of our other, more occasional volunteers, too! Thank you, all!
See our wish list page if you'd like to know
more about volunteering at CWER.
THANK YOU, ALL! WE COULDN'T DO THE WORK WE DO WITHOUT YOU!
HORSE SLAUGHTER: Our Articles and Links pages have
information on the practice of live horse slaughter for human consumption. Our
president supports the Federal bill to end horse slaughter, but respects that others may not. Most of all, we encourage everyone to be
informed, to make their own decisions, and let their voices be heard by our government.
