Meet TRAK: Our Buckeye, AZ Walkabout Tour Nonprofit Organization

0122_02

At each Walkabout Tour, Clinton and tour feature sponsor Ritchie Industries team up to select a local nonprofit organization to run the Ritchie Charity Ball Toss. The Ritchie Charity Ball Toss is a contest in which horsemen in the audience throw numbered tennis balls they’ve purchased from our chosen non-profit group into the arena, trying to be the closest to a pre-determined marker. The owners of the three closest tennis balls to the marker receive Clinton’s instructional videos and Downunder Horsemanship training tools. All money raised throughout the ball toss goes straight to the non-profit organization. It’s one of Clinton’s ways to give back to the communities he visits and a fan favorite at Walkabout Tours.

Our Buckeye, Arizona nonprofit organization is TRAK – Therapeutic Ranch for Animals and Kids, located in Tucson, Arizona. TRAK was established in 2007 and focuses on strengthening kids and community through animal interaction. The organization offers several equine opportunities, including: riding lessons, trail rides, Little Buckaroos Club, for children 7 years of age and younger, and Gymkhana Club.

Members of TRAK will have a booth at the tour and will be busy raising funds for their cause. Learn more about TRAK and its various programs on its website.
