In September 2018, Phyllis and a group of HPF cowgirls attended the Homes for Horses Coalition Conference in Orlando, Florida. After hearing about last year’s event, the girls were very eager to go, and worked hard to raise the money for their travel expenses.
At the conference they participated in workshops on fundraising, grants, effective digital presence, working with law enforcement, engaging trainers, and getting horses adopted The girls also attended a day-long hands-on horse training clinic with the HSUS Forever Foundation program trainer, Trevor Carter. It was a great learning experience and everyone had a great time!
