A big THANK YOU to the Vivmark Residential team for spending last Friday giving back to ROCK! 👏

From sweeping sidewalks and cleaning gates to raking rocks in our Sport Clips Heroes Arena, their team jumped right in to help keep our property looking its best.

We are so grateful for their hard work, generosity, and willingness to lend a hand. Thank you, Vivmark Residential, for being part of the ROCK community! ❤️

We are so grateful to the wonderful team from Dell Technologies Dell Grads Give (DGG) who spent the day serving at ROCK last Friday! 👏

This incredible group rolled up their sleeves and got to work, power washing our Sport Clips Heroes Arena signage and giving our pasture fences a fresh coat of paint. Their hard work helps keep our facility looking its best and, most importantly, creates a welcoming and safe place for our participants, families, volunteers, and horses.

Dell Grads Give is an employee resource group dedicated to fostering community engagement, volunteerism, and professional development for employees early in their careers. We are so thankful they chose to spend their time making a difference at ROCK!

Thank you, DGG, for getting in the dirt with us! 🐴❤️

What happens behind the scenes when real lives, years of work, and the extraordinary connection between horses and people become a documentary? 🎙️🐴

ROCK Ride On Center for Kids founder and CEO Dr. Nancy Krenek and director Twila LaBar joined Jeff Stolhand on the Filmmaker Mixer Podcast for a conversation about the story behind Where the Horses Heal the Soul - from the work happening every day at ROCK to the people who trusted us to share their stories on film.

We also talk about the making of the documentary and what we discovered along the way about horses, healing, and the people whose lives have been changed through equine-assisted services.

If you’ve watched the film, or you’re curious about what happened behind the camera, come join the conversation! ❤️

What do you get when two storied nonprofits partner up? A stronger community!

This year we partnered with ROCK, Ride on Center for Kids, to promote our fundraising events happening on the same day, Saturday, Nov. 7, 2026.

The 5th Annual Cowgirl Bruncheon is hosted for the local women’s business community that benefits women of all ages participating in ROCK programs.

The 3rd annual Stetsons and Starlight Gala takes place at Reunion Ranch in Georgetown. All proceeds benefit Palace Education programs.

It became clear to both organizations that collaborating to promote both events and our collective community impact was imperative. We hope you can make both events!

Kick up the dirt in the arena with ROCK for brunch and then party with the Palace for an evening of entertainment. Both support award winning programs that benefit our community.

Special Offer
Keep your boots on and attend both events. If you're already signed up for one event, the other will be discounted by 20%.
