EQUUS:
Boots, Buckles & Bourbon

Saturday, October 3, 2026 from 6:00 to 11:00 PM
THE RYLAND INN

Join us for EQUUS at the Ryland Inn, an extraordinary evening where Hill Country style meets profound purpose!

Indulge in an elevated ranch-style feast and a premier WHISKEY PROPOSITION TASTING. You won't want to miss our exclusive live and silent auctions or our BESPOKE BELT BAR, where you can personalize a custom leather belt.

Most importantly, your participation directly helps children and adults with special needs continue to thrive. From building confidence in the saddle to healing through horse-powered therapy with NJ-licensed therapists, your presence makes that possible.

Round up your friends for an unforgettable night of Western fun and generosity.

THE GOLDEN RULE
If it looks great with a pair of boots and a nice glass of bourbon, you're doing it right!
