Merry Christmas and Thank You!

December 20, 2018 By Robb Lawson

We want to wish all of our friends and supporters a Merry Christmas and happy holiday season. We thank all of you for your donations, hard work, good wishes, love, and friendship throughout 2018. We hope you have a happy and prosperous New Year!

Thanks to all of our volunteers for your hard work in 2018.  We lost a veteran volunteer this year. Mr. Lee assisted with all the horses, mucked a great stall, and told us great stories.  He was a Vietnam Vet whose heart was for our country as well as for Gabby’s Sanctuary ARK.

We also have a new addition to the sanctuary; Ms. Dazzle.  She is a beautiful Arabian horse that is being sponsored by Carolyn Barnett.  Mrs. Barnett has two horses that she sponsors, Mr. Oscar is her boy also.  He acts just like her.

We are also very thankful for the support from Cashel, Texas Capital Bank, Carolyn Barnett, Janie Henry, William Hosey and family, Dr. Ellis, the GSA Board of Directors, the Lancaster Independent School District and many more.  We could not do it without your support.

Volunteer Highlight: Carolyn Barnett

February 22, 2018 By Karen White

City Girl Gone Country

Carolyn Barnett, Volunteer

Carolyn Barnett is one of our most faithful volunteers, usually taking care of our horses 6 days a week, and sometimes more. Carolyn is a veteran of the U.S. Coast Guard and a retired Correctional Officer for the state of New York.

Carolyn always dreamed of being a cowgirl, working with horses, and being in the open air. While preparing to move from New York to Texas, Carolyn did some research and discovered Gabby’s Sanctuary ARK. She sent an inquiry, and of course, we welcomed her into the GSA family.

Carolyn enjoys learning about horses from the ground up at Gabby’s ARK, rescuing animals, and giving back to the community. She also enjoys getting everyone’s day started right when she arrives in the mornings. She handles the feeding, checks to see that all of the horses are well and don’t have any wounds or issues that need to be medicated or seen by the vet, and sings a special song to each horse. She also sponsors Oscar and the photo below shows that they are best buddies.
