GAIT Horse-A-Fair has something for everyone

MILFORD — The GAIT Horse-A-Fair is not only a fundraiser but a “thank you” to the vast community that supports GAIT. The Horse-A-Fair will be on Saturday, Aug. 2 at from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. and will feature refreshments, games, live music, tricky tray, 50/50 raffle and photos with the horses. GAIT (“Genuine Alternative in Therapy”) is an innovative therapeutic horseback-riding center that works with children and adults with special needs to help them improve their quality of life and enable them to live more independently. The acronym GAIT also refers to the stride of the horse, which allows riders to feel the flowing movement of an even walking stride, improving their coordination through tactile experience and their confidence through the mobility of horseback riding. GAIT is located at 314 Foster Hill Road in Milford.
