Special People United to Ride (SPUR), a therapeutic horsemanship program for individuals with disabilities, will hold an evening of wine and beer tastings 7-11 p.m. Jan. 23 at the Salt Creek Grille, 4 Bingham Ave., Rumson.
Attendees can enjoy fine wines and craft beers, light fare and a world-class selection of cheeses and accompaniments. The evening will also include live music, auctions, a 50/50 raffle and a wine toss.
Proceeds will benefit SPUR’s scholarships for its therapeutic horsemanship program at the Sunnyside Equestrian Center, Middletown, according to a press release.
The equestrian center, which is owned by the Monmouth County Park System, is part of the 135-acre Sunnyside Recreation Area in Middletown.
This year, more than $30,000 in scholarships will be awarded to students with demonstrated need, including military veterans and active-duty personnel who qualify for the new Horses for Heroes program.
More than 200 students participate in SPUR’s programs, assisted by more than 100 volunteers, according to the press release.
