Community Service
Mill Creek Farm- Retirement Home for Horses
Retirement Home for Horses at Mill Creek Farm is a nonprofit equine sanctuary located in Alachua, Florida. They provide lifelong care for horses that have been neglected or abused or that are unwanted and destined for slaughter and we volunteer there to feed and groom the horses.

Two Tails Ranch
Two Tails Ranch is one of North American's premier exotic animal care facilities. Located just west of Gainesville and Ocala, Florida, this spectacular haven has been a training, medical, breeding and retirement facility for hundreds of elephants and exotic felines for over 20 years. We volunteer to help ensure food for the elephants.

Food Drives
We usually do one food drive per semester to help local non-profits in the Gainesville and Alachua area. We often help the Food for the Mighty and Gainesville Backpack Club.
Social Events
Tie-dying
At the beginning of Fall, we usually have a tie-dying meeting where we can dye our Equestrian Team shirts! It's a lot of fun!
Bonfires
Once the weather gets chilly in Gainesville, we have a bonfire night at one of the coaches' barns to roast marshmallows and just hang out.
