This handsome man (formerly #540 from the 11/30/11 Camelot auction) is now a gelding. His new owner is anxiously waiting for him to be out of quarantine so they can start their new life together in PA.
Nicholasville, KY-12/14/11- Months ago, Sarah K. Andrew, the award-winning equine photographer, who donates her time capturing the soul of the Camelot horses with her camera, and Gina Keesling of Hoofprints notified us of their decision to donate all the profits of the Horses and Hope calendar to US. This was a complete and unexpected surprise and we were understandably flattered to have been chosen.
Fast forward a bit to Saturday. Sarah has come to KY to present us a check for the proceeds. The calendar has gone into a second printing, so we knew a lot had been sold, but what was in store for us was mind blowing.
The proceeds from the sales was over $26,000 (so far)! That is a LOT of calendars!
Most of the funds will be used for our Gelding program. We are setting up a special fund and Sarah will have input on how we spend it.
We are honored and a bit awed. Thank you just doesn’t seem like enough. To Sarah K. Andrew, her mother Vickie who helps her at the auction, Gina Keesling at Hoofprints and all the thousands who post the Camelot horses weekly, you have our heartfelt appreciation.
