R3VHC

There is something different about camp at R3VHC.

It's not one big experience. It's the little ones that make it.

The quiet before the day starts.
The rhythm of chores.
The first time a horse starts to trust you.
The laugh that breaks the tension.
The conversation that happens when no one is forcing it.
The feeling of being around people who understand without needing the whole story.

R3VHC is built around horses, but it is also built around routine, connection, patience, and time away from the noise.

For veterans, military personnel, and first responders, those small moments can matter more than people realize.

That is what makes R3VHC special.

From all of us at R3VHC: 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂!

Last night’s R3VHC Annual Fundraiser was an incredible evening, and we are deeply grateful to everyone who came out and supported the event. Every ticket purchased, raffle entered, auction bid, merch sale, donation, conversation, and shared moment helped make the night a success.

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to the 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗟𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗰𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁, our Premier Sponsor, for their continued support of R3VHC and our female veterans program. Their partnership has made a meaningful impact on the work we are able to do.

We are also incredibly grateful to 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗮 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆, a strong partner of R3VHC and the host of our annual fundraiser. Thank you for your hospitality, support, and for helping create such a welcoming space for our community.

A special thank you to the generous donors who contributed items for our auctions and raffles, including:

To every person who bought a ticket, brought a friend, bid on an item, purchased raffle tickets, supported our merch table, donated, volunteered, or helped spread the word: 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

R3VHC exists because people continue to believe in the mission and show up for veterans, military personnel, and first responders. Last night was a reminder of how strong and generous this community truly is.

Thank you for standing with R3VHC.

We would also like to recognize two important organizations helping make this event possible.

A sincere thank you to the Canadian Legacy Project, our Premier Sponsor for this year’s fundraiser. CLP has been a strong supporter of R3VHC and our female veterans program, and their continued commitment helps us provide meaningful peer support and equine-assisted programming for the veterans we serve.

We are also grateful to Trans Canada Brewing Company, a strong partner of R3VHC and the host of our annual fundraiser. Their continued support and hospitality help make this event such a special night for our community.

While fundraiser tickets are sold out, you can still get in on the action by purchasing a Ranch Life Lottery 50/50 ticket online. Every ticket helps support R3VHC and the work we do with veterans, military personnel, and first responders.

A truly special piece will be part of our live auction at the R3VHC Annual Fundraiser.

This beautiful painting was created by Sharon Cory, a well-known Manitoba artist whose work captures warmth, movement, and connection. Sharon also creates 12” x 12” pet portraits, with proceeds supporting animal rescue shelters.

This piece was commissioned and donated by Hairforce Barbershop, with the frame designed by Terri Townsend, owner of Hairforce Barbershop.

The frame itself carries a special connection to R3VHC. It was handcrafted using old wood from the Red Rose Ranch barn, giving the piece not only an emotional connection to R3VHC, but a physical one as well.

The frame was built by Brad, a former military infantry member and Afghanistan veteran, who generously donated his time, skill, and craftsmanship to the project.

From the artwork to the frame, this piece represents community, service, creativity, and generosity. We are incredibly grateful to everyone involved in bringing it together.

This one-of-a-kind painting will be available during the live auction at the R3VHC Annual Fundraiser.

Only a handful of tickets are still available now at R3VHC.com.

What an incredible weekend at the Manitoba Stampede!

R3VHC was proud to be part of the community from July 17–19, and we are grateful for everyone who stopped by our booth, asked questions, and supported the program.

We were especially proud to see members of our team recognized during the amazing shows. One of our instructors, Terry, had the honour of carrying the R3VHC flag, and another R3VHC instructor was asked on short notice to take part in the opening ceremonies because of his expertise and well-trained horse. R3VHC is always glad to support this amazing community that supports us.

We were also excited to have St. Boniface MLA Robert Loiselle stop by our booth to learn more about R3VHC and the people we serve.

Thank you to the Manitoba Stampede community for the warm welcome and support.
