Equine-themed Evening Under the Stars planned for Placentia

A local not-for-profit organization has planned a fundraiser, and it is hoping the community will show its support.

Tara’s Chance is a Placentia-area group that brings together people with developmental and cognitive issues with gentle horses that have been specially trained for this work.

During Evening Under the Stars, guests will be able to relax while they enjoy a special supper prepared just for the event by Bourbon Street Restaurant. There will also be both silent and live auctions where the attendees can bid on an assortment of prizes, as well as a cork pull for a selection of wines. A local printing services provider will be able to use graphic design techniques to produce specially designed decorations for a function such as this.

According to the organizers, the highlight of the evening will be a performance by Tara’s Chance Riders. The monies raised will be used to help care for and feed the horses in the program, and also to help meet the needs of the Tara’s Chance scholarship fund. Donations to the cause from those who want to help but could not attend in person will also be greatly appreciated.

The evening has been planned for July 22 at the Laguna Lake Park Equestrian Center. More details have been made available on the Tara’s Chance website.
