We Want to Help You Raise Funds for Your Equine Organization

0128_01

At each Walkabout Tour, we team up with our featured sponsor Ritchie Industries to find a local non-profit organization to be our Ritchie Charity group. Throughout the tour, the group runs the Ritchie Charity Ball Toss, selling tennis balls to the audience. All money raised throughout the ball toss goes straight to the non-profit organization. It’s one of Clinton’s ways to give back to the communities he visits and a fan-favorite event at Walkabout Tours.

On the last day of the tour stop, audience members throw the tennis balls they’ve purchased from the group into the arena, trying to be the closest to a stake in the middle of the arena. The owners of the three closest tennis balls to the marker receive Clinton’s instructional videos and Downunder Horsemanship training tools.

This year, the Walkabout Tour is coming to four locations:

  1. 1. Memphis, Tennessee, March 15 and 16
  2. 2. Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, July 12 and 13
  3. 3. Waterloo, Iowa, September 6 and 7
  4. 4. Buckeye, Arizona, December 13 and 14

If you have a non-profit organization with equine connections near our tour stops, fill out an application on our website to be our Ritchie Charity group.
