This week I interviewed the lovely Sasha Camacho and her husband Andy who founded Soleana Stables. It is a riding program for children and adults with disabilities just outside of Houston, Texas. Their daughter Solana was born with Down Syndrome and after discovering her love of riding Andy literally had a dream. For three nights in a row he dreamed the same dream that kept getting more and more detailed and it was the birth of Soleana Stables riding program.
It took a little convincing to get Sasha on board, but she agreed it was a good idea and they started to volunteer at other riding programs and learn as much as they could. For this city girl, boots and horses were a bit out of her wheelhouse. Fast forward to today where they have about 30 riders, countless volunteers and a commitment to creating a family community for those with special needs. They are always looking for volunteers and you don't have to have horse experience, just a willingness to learn and an open heart. Training is provided.
