This year’s trail ride will be held on Saturday, April 18, 2026, at 4pm (ride out time 5:00 PM) with a celebration to follow, located at the beautiful Schnebly Redland Winery and Miami Brewing Co. This is a great opportunity for the community to come together to raise awareness of Autism and celebrate the positive impact horses have in our lives. We expect over 100 people to attend the trail ride which is open to the public with a $25 requested donation. Don’t ride horses? Not a problem. We will also be having a “Forget the road, take the trail” event at the Brewhouse directly following the trail ride with discounted beer, food, line dancing and much more for those more interested in staying on two legs.

Whispering Manes Therapeutic Riding Center
Located in the heart of Horse Country in Miami-Dade County, its mission is to benefit children and adults with special needs or disabilities by offering them the opportunity to interact with dedicated horses in a manner that promotes physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. Through programs at Whispering Manes people can develop therapeutic relationships with horses, crossing boundaries of speech and physical disabilities in a way that encourages healing and improved self-esteem. In its many years of operation, Whispering Manes has positively impacted the lives of hundreds of Miami-Dade children and adults with disabilities.

With your sponsorship, Whispering Manes will be able to continue to provide high quality equine assisted activities to many more children and adults with special needs as well as local military veterans. Your support will also help fund the cost of hosting our fall festival, making this a special event for the entire community.
