Wanted: Nonprofit Organization to Benefit From the Montana Walkabout Tour

1211_03

We’re looking for an equine-related nonprofit organization to join our team at the Kalispell, Montana Walkabout Tour. At each tour stop, we work with our featured sponsor Ritchie Industries to select a local organization to run the Ritchie Charity Ball Toss, a contest in which spectators purchase tennis balls from the organization and toss the balls into the arena, trying to be the closest to a designated marker. Big prizes, including training videos and our best-selling tack, are up for grabs.

The selected nonprofit organization keeps all of the funds raised throughout the event to help their cause. Over the years, we’ve teamed up with therapeutic riding associations, equine rescues, rehabilitation centers and search and rescue teams. The Kalispell, Montana tour will take place at the Majestic Valley Arena, August 1 and 2. To learn more about the opportunity and to submit an application for consideration, visit our website.
