We are so grateful to the McGeachy family for letting us borrow Moonlight, their gentle amazingly handsome “Paint” Horse to be used during the teaching sessions for the Special Olympic athletes.
The McGeachy family adopted Moonlight from an owner in Pittsburgh a few years ago. Moonlight was formerly a riding instruction horse so he knows what to do during riding lessons. Moonlight is boarded at the beautiful Ithaca Equestrian Center where the McGeachy family rides Moonlight several times a week.
.“Paints” are special breeds, and Moonlight is particularly unique with his bold stripes.
Paints are well-known for their patience and easy-going manner. The Native Americans, especially Comanches, prized these horses, and Paints are still favored by cowboys and cattle ranchers to this day.
What the McGeachy family love most is “how Moonlight takes care of you, and he knows when he has a new rider and will look back or slow down to make sure the rider is doing OK.” We are so happy that the McGeachy family will be at some of our trainings and other events to encourage our Team. Welcome Moonlight and the lovely McGeachy family to Stablework! .
