Dear Affinity Ranch Family,
As we bid farewell to March and welcome the onset of spring, I can't help but feel a sense of joy with the arrival of warmer weather and the sunshine that lifts our spirits.
This month, we were honored to host Jensen Sutta, a renowned photographer known for capturing moments with some of the world’s biggest stars. Jensen generously spent the day with us, capturing the essence of our programs in action. The breathtaking photos he took will serve as powerful tools to showcase the meaningful work we do at Affinity Ranch. Personally, as someone who deeply appreciates the art of photography, I am moved by how beautifully Jensen was able to tell the Affinity Ranch story through his lens.
I would also like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Eric Jensen, whose unwavering commitment to the ranch has been nothing short of inspiring. Eric has generously volunteered countless hours this month, leading projects and enhancing the beauty of the ranch. His dedication and hard work have made a lasting impact on all of us.
Our psychotherapy services have expanded over the past couple of months, and we are excited to welcome new clinicians to our team. They have been instrumental in helping us manage our mental health waitlist, ensuring that our clients continue to receive the specialized care they deserve. It's truly heartwarming to have such compassionate and skilled providers join our community, and we’re grateful for their genuine passion for the work they do.
A special thank you goes to the Rotary Club of Parker, whose dedication and tireless efforts have been crucial in laying the foundation for our new mental health cabins. Despite the challenges of snow, sleet, and frozen ground, these incredible volunteers never wavered in their commitment. We look forward to seeing these cabins completed, which will provide our clients with a more private, serene setting that aligns with the natural beauty of the ranch.
As Easter approaches, we are filling our baskets with love and hope for the animals here at the ranch. We invite you to join us in supporting our beloved animals by donating to our Easter Basket Drive. Your generous contributions will help ensure that we continue to provide the care and attention our animals need to thrive. Every donation makes a difference, and we are deeply grateful for your continued support. https://www.coloradogives.org/story/Kfxbqf
Lastly, we are excited to introduce a new addition to the ranch: Rufus, a horse who is currently on trial with us. He comes from a wonderful family who is eager to see how Rufus can positively impact the lives of those here at Affinity Ranch. We are deeply grateful for their trust and the opportunity to build a lasting relationship with Rufus. We are hopeful that he will become a beloved member of our ranch family.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support and for being a part of the Affinity Ranch journey.
With warmth and gratitude,
Shannon Forslund
Affinity Ranch
