40 forty days of foal
“40 days” of our foal

DEAR FRIENDS, FRIENDS' FRIENDS AND SO ON...

Association of Hippotherapy and Equestrian Sports "Centaur"

AGAIN INVITES EVERYBODY!!!

TO ANOTHER EXTRAORDINARY CHARITY EVENT!
17 - May - 2009
On 5th of April a new baby horse was born in our stable!!! By Armenian tradition when a baby gets 40 days old friends and relatives gather to see him/her; until that day only close relatives are allowed to see the baby. So we decided to celebrate 40 days of our little baby horse and to use that occasion for another fund-raising for hippotherapy.

The event will take place at the horse riding club "Zatik" located in Ashtarak village Ushi on Sunday, May 17, 2008, from 12.00-17.00. In that ancient village of Armenia we, Centaur NGO (hippotherapist Hasmik and horse-riding trainer Borya) practice hippotherapy for children with mental and physical problems.
Before moving on to further details on the event we would like to thank those who participated in the last charity event, Day of Harmony of Human, Horse and Nature.
Your donations were a great help to the children and the horses.
At “40 days” of our foal you will:
  • Communicate with our horses (they are 11, including 4 foals), feed them with sugar, apple and carrot, pet them and listen to funny and touchy stories related to them;
  • Ride horses: unlike the previous time now we can bring out 2-3 horse at the same time;
  • Like last time breathe gallons of fresh air coming right from Ara and Aragats mountains, walk around and enjoy being at Nature;
  • Listen to good music (last time Reincarnation Reggie band was going to come and play at the event. They did not come for the reason they never explained and, we know, disappointed many of you. So this time we are more cautious to saying any name, but good music and singing will be there for sure. By the way any of you who sing or play any instrument you can bring with you are welcome to perform at our place). Also most probably we will have Bnatachar dance group as our guests and they again will dance and teach you wonderful Armenian dances.
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT!!!
We need your help in a very important thing: our baby does not have a name yet and we would like to ask you to help us with choosing a name for her. It has to be a girl’s name since our baby is a girl, to start with G since her father’s name is Golden and to contain J (like Russian zh) since her mother’s name is Jasmin. It can be not only a name but a word (like Golden) with a good meaning in any language. Please send your suggestions on the email address CLOAKING or text on the phone number 093 21 07 48, including your name and last name. We will choose the name we (3 members of Jury ;)) will like and will announce it at the event. The winner will get 5 horse riding lessons FOR FREE!
Food: we will serve some local food and drink enough to eat something but not enough to get full. So have a proper breakfast before coming.
How to reach to us: At 11 am on May 17 a bus will be waiting for you in front of the shoe-shop Armeno at Kievyan street (a bit down the shopping mall Hayastan) which will take you to the village Ushi and will bring you back to Yerevan at around 5-6 pm. Return ticket costs 1000 drams per person (children travel for free).
ATTENTION Since the event is charitable there will be a box in which you can put as much money as you like. If you have no money or no wish, do not worry, you are still our desirable guest! :) All money will go for hippotherapy needs.
If you like to bring along friends or relatives feel free to do it; we have enough place for everybody!.
Contact information: Everyone who likes to participate in the event please contact me, Hasmik, through the email address CLOAKING or call at 093 21 07 48. Please confirm your participation till May 15 so that we are able to manage transportation for everybody!
We will be happy to see all of you at our riding place!
Hasmik and Borya
