Bridles & Boots Gala
May 16 @ 4:30 pm – 9:00 pm
For more than a decade, Bridles & Boots has been a marquee event on the Williamsburg social calendar. This signature gala welcomes up to 350 guests each year and raises more than $100,000 in critical support for our mission. Proceeds provide partial scholarships to every client in our therapeutic riding and equine-assisted services programs, ensure exceptional care for our herd of therapy horses, and help maintain facilities.
The evening begins with a lively cocktail hour featuring live entertainment, gourmet hors d’oeuvres, premium cocktails, wine and beer. Guests enjoy guided tours of the facility, meet-and greets with our therapy horses, inspiring student spotlights, and the thrill of the Preakness broadcast live on jumbo screens. The celebration continues with an elegant, seated buffet dinner, followed by a live auction showcasing one-of-a-kind experiences and a heartfelt “paddle raise” to fund scholarships — an inspiring close to an unforgettable evening in support of our riders and horses.
