A great live auction needs two things: the right items and the right people to bring the energy. This year, we’re incredibly fortunate to have both.

A huge thank you to Perlich Bros. Auction Market Ltd., the team behind our Auction in the Arena, for bringing the expertise, pace and excitement that make a live auction such a memorable part of the Ride4Dreams Cabaret.

And to JPH Equipment, our High-Stakes Hand — thank you for taking things one step further. JPH has helped elevate this year’s auction by procuring the night’s premiere live auction item, while continuing to find creative and meaningful ways to support LTRA and our events.

Together, Perlich Bros. and JPH Equipment are helping make the auction more than a fundraiser — they’re making it part of the experience.

We can’t wait to see those paddles up on September 11th!

And that’s a wrap on our 2026 Riding Rookies Summer Camps! 🐴☀️

What a summer it has been! We’re so grateful to have had so many amazing groups of campers. From time spent in the saddle, to crafts, games, and plenty of fun in the arena, LTRA was full of laughter, learning, and horses all summer long!

A huge shoutout to our incredible camp leaders, Dakota and Grace, for helping make each week so fantastic. Your creativity, energy, and dedication made such a difference in creating a fun experience for everyone!💛

We hope to see you all again next year! 🐎

If you’re looking for more time in the saddle, our fall programming has officially launched, and we still have space available in our riding lessons! Come spend more time with the horses and keep the fun going🍂🐴 https://ltra.ca/programs/riding-lessons

A huge thank you to Cornerstone Funeral Home Ltd. — our Western Wildflower Sponsor for the 43rd Annual Joanne Perlich Ride4Dreams!

Cornerstone Funeral Home Ltd.’s support of LTRA goes well beyond sponsorship. Earlier this year, their team came out to our facility as part of their 30 Days of Giving campaign, rolled up their sleeves, and helped us paint an area of our barn. That kind of community involvement means a great deal to us. We love partnering with organizations like Cornerstone Funeral Home, whose care for our community isn’t simply something they promote — it’s something they demonstrate through their actions. We are so grateful to have them alongside us again for Ride4Dreams!

And if you haven’t secured your tickets yet, this is your last chance! The Ride4Dreams Cabaret on September 11th is shaping up to be one incredible night:

Two Alberta country artists — Chase Morgan & Brettyn Rose.
A line dancing instructor + competition.
High-end BBQ by MA Catering.
Live entertainment, dancing and plenty of fun!

Best of all, it’s a night out with a purpose — supporting the work of the Lethbridge Therapeutic Riding Association and helping keep our programs accessible throughout the year.

A huge thank you to Bridge Land & Energy Services Ltd., our Pony-Up Partner: Trail Ride Sponsor for the 43rd Annual Joanne Perlich Ride4Dreams! Their support is helping make the Ride4Dreams Trail Ride on Saturday, September 12th at Pavan Park possible — a longstanding LTRA tradition that brings horse lovers together to do something they already love, while riding for a cause.

Are you a horse lover willing to Ride for a Cause? We need you! The Trail Ride is pledge-based, meaning riders register, collect pledges from friends, family and their communities, and then saddle up alongside fellow equestrians for a scenic group ride in support of LTRA. Individuals and teams are welcome, with prizes for our top fundraisers and plenty of community spirit along the way. Every pledge raised through Ride4Dreams helps LTRA continue providing accessible therapeutic riding and equine wellness programs, care for our incredible herd year-round, and ensure more people can experience the connection, confidence and opportunity that horses can provide.

Bridge Land & Energy Services: thank you for saddling up alongside us and helping make this important day possible!

And don’t forget — the Ride4Dreams weekend kicks off the night before with our Ride4Dreams Cabaret on Friday, September 11th! Tickets are available now.
