San Tan Valley nonprofit providing therapy on horses to special needs kids gears up for benefit poker ride

Saddling up, be it on one horsepower or 100 hp at a time, is therapeutic in a way nothing else can match. Since 2018, Manes and Miracles has been bringing hope, happiness and healing to children with special needs one horsepower at a time! Join us as Manes and Miracles and Superstition Harley-Davidson present the 2nd annual Motors, Manes, and Miracles Poker Ride and Cornhole Tournament. Start the ride off with registration at 9 am at the Manes and Miracles Ranch with a free deluxe pancake breakfast (donations encouraged), tours of the Ranch, and meet and greets with the animals and kiddos you are helping.

I love Manes and Miracles because of the joy it brings to my daughter Lucy every week. Riding the horse allows her to experience life in a whole new way that her own body is not physically able to do. To see her smile and her pure joy each week on the horse is amazing to watch as a parent.

Once kickstands go up, you'll weave through winding and wide open country roads to finish up at Superstition Harley-Davidson for the After-Party and Cornhole Tournament from 1-3 pm. Compete for the title of Cornhole Champion at, listen to the Live DJ, win big at our silent auction and raffle, and enjoy a delicious BBQ lunch by Karnivore meats. Pre-register at
manesandmiraclesaz.org for just $20 for a single rider, $25 for rider and passenger.

Equine-assisted therapy is magic and Manes & Miracles provides a safe, loving place for it all to unfold.
