We’re Looking for Non-Profit Organizations

FILES2f20162f042f0412_05.jpg.jpg

For over 16 years, we’ve been helping non-profit organizations raise funds for their cause at our Walkabout Tours. At each tour stop, Clinton teams up with our tour feature sponsor, Ritchie Industries, to put on the Ritchie Charity Ball Toss. A local organization with equine connections is selected to run the ball toss that has become a crowd favorite. Throughout the two-day event, spectators purchase tennis balls from the non-profit organization for $5, and on Sunday afternoon toss them into the arena trying to be the closest to a pre-determined marker. Those closest to the marker receive Clinton’s instructional DVDs and Downunder Horsemanship training tools. All money raised goes straight to the non-profit organization.

Organizations chosen to head up the Ritchie Charity Ball Toss in the past have included equine rescues, therapeutic riding centers for children, adults and military personnel, and 4-H groups. Thanks to tour spectators’ generosity and Ritchie’s willingness to support the event, the ball toss has earned hundreds of thousands of dollars for non-profit organizations around the country.

We’re looking for non-profit organizations that are near our remaining 2016 Walkabout Tour stops in Loveland, Colorado, Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Kalispell, Montana. Organizations interested in running the Ritchie Charity Ball Toss can find more information and fill out an application on the Downunder Horsemanship website.
