 * __Comments:__** This organization is great for all people of all ages. The ARCH has committed itself to making people with needs feel comfortable, refreshed, and making them feel revived. Providing a comfortable environment with a pleasurable staff and friendly volunteers makes this horse riding facility amazing. The 10 horses that are at the farm make all of the participants happy at all times. I am honored to say that my girlfriend is a volunteer at this company. She helps out every week, is constantly praising the staff and riders, and loves to make the people here be as happy as possible.
