Dear Merry-Go-Round Friends,
2015
We are confident that you will agree that technology
supporting how we communicate with one another is
rapidly changing and that we are continually challenged
to keep up with these changes. We are now in the
process of upgrading and bringing our website up
to date to communicate more effectively with our
ridership.
To accomplish this, we have engaged a professional
media and marketing company to redesign and enhance
our ability to connect with the rapidly changing social
media world.
Equally important is our mission to maintain our
building and to continue the horse restoration program.
Your contribution and help with these projects will be
greatly appreciated .
Sincerely, with our grateful thanks,
Your gift helps us
to keep spinning !
