Community invited to the Peninsula Volunteers’ Horsin’ Around fundraiser on June 23

The Peninsula Volunteers are hosting a fundraiser on June 23 at the National Center for Equine Facilitated Therapy in Woodside – and the community is invited to join in on the festivities, which benefit services to the aging. Co-chaired by Jill Jerrehian and Terri Carville, the hoedown will begin at 4:00 pm with “thirst quenchers” and “trailtizers,” followed by the dinner at 5:30 pm featuring Harry’s Hofbrau “Best in the West” barbeque.

Music for line dancing will be provided by the Dick Green Band. There will also be a vaulting show, cowgirl act, parade of miniature horses and goats, panning for gold, and gaming. In attendance will be the famous “Butt Sketcher” from Texas. Dress is Western casual.
