Please help us make Desert Springs Equine Sanctuary Center’s First Annual Used Tack Sale a success. We are currently accepting donations for new or gently used tack, riding accessories, riding clothing, or any other horse-related items that you are willing to part with for a great cause. The DSESC "It’s Not Too Late for Spring Cleaning First Annual Used Tack Sale" will be held on September 18th, 2010 during the TDC schooling dressage show being held at Desert Springs Equestrian Center. The rescue efforts at Desert Springs Equine Sanctuary Center are currently funded through private sources. All proceeds from the First Annual Used Tack Sale will be used to support the horses in our care. Desert Springs Equine Sanctuary Center is an Arizona Non-profit Organization, and at this time, we are applying for our 501(c)(3) federal tax exempt status.

Please email Beth Stahmer at estahmer@hotmail.com or Cathy Schreiber at cmilagrodressage@aol.com for further information or to arrange for pick-up/delivery of your donated items.
