Starlight Salon presents the 5th annual Autism Awareness Fundraiser.  Join us on Saturday, September 22 at Frontenac Park in Union Springs for music, activities, pony rides and, of course, a wide variety of raffles.  Follow us on Facebook for pictures of raffle items.  Proceeds from this fundraiser are being forwarded to Healing H’Arts Equestrian Center, Inc for the dust-free footing.

Healing H’Arts has served many people on the Autism Spectrum using horses as a tool to build communication, social skills, and self-organization.  Riding provides the body with multiple sensory experiences.  The rhythmic movements from the horse helps to organize the brain and prepare for transition and change.  Horses put the pieces of the puzzle together.
