First, we would like to thank Jim McDonough, of Jim McDonough Cutting Horses, his family and staff for hosting our 2021 TACO Camp. As we learned in 2019, Jim brings a ton of enthusiasm and energy to camp, and as always it is LOVED by the campers and volunteers. We also greatly appreciate Jim and his clients generosity in allowing us the use of their horses. Jazzware, Bo, and Lady made wonderful camp ponies this year! As we said numerous times throughout the week, if it weren't for the horses and their amazing temperaments camp would not be possible.
