SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS <br /> <br />Ride On Therapeutic Horsemanship <br /> <br />Bryan McQueeney, CEO and Co-Founder of Ride On Therapeutic Horsemanship, <br />presented highlights of the past year and expressed his gratitude for 18 years of <br />successful partnership with CRPD. He reviewed the history of the organization and <br />remarked on the strong community and volunteer efforts needed for its continued <br />success. This year, the City of Thousand Oaks has asked Ride On to step in and manage <br />the 20-acre Rancho Potrero Community Equestrian Center. McQueeney is excited at the <br />prospect of being selected as the long-term operator, especially given the potential of <br />bringing a non-profit approach to the location, with the many programming and <br />educational opportunities it would afford. This possible transition is in very early stages; <br />the hope is that CRPD will be a close partner in this endeavor, helping to create another <br />amazing asset for the people of the Conejo Valley. McQueeney answered Board <br />Member’s questions and was thanked for his informative presentation. <br /> <br />4. ITEMS FROM THE PUBLIC <br /> <br />5.
