Thank for being a loyal and supportive volunteer. ROARR is very blessed to have you in our family. Let’s let our followers get to know you a bit better.

Bacardi

Where are you from?

My name is Bacardi and I am 25 years old. I grew up on a ranch in Alberta and my owners Pat and Shannon Powell thought I would be a great fit for ROARR and am living out my retirement at RiverCross Ranch.

What do you do?

I am retired and volunteer my time with ROARR doing Equine Assisted Learning with the kids.

What do you do when you aren’t working or volunteering?

I enjoy rolling in the dirt, eating hay, napping and spending time with my buddy Chochie.

Why do you volunteer at ROARR?

I love spending time with the kids, being groomed and helping kids work through their emotions.

What would someone be surprised to know about you?

I am a retired polo horse and played polo for many years!

Is there someone who inspires you?

The beautiful views at the ranch that I get to enjoy every day.

What is the best piece of advice you have ever received?

To be free spirited and live in the moment.

What are you most looking forward to in the next five years?

Green grass, fresh hay and making a difference in kids lives.
