Special People United to Ride (SPUR) is a non-profit organization of local citizens established in 1981. Members assist the Park System in serving individuals with physical and mental disabilities through horseback riding lessons. Students work to improve self-esteem, social skills, balance, muscle tone, and posture as well as to process sensory messages. A dedicated group of individuals works together to staff the Equestrian Center year round. Instructors are certified by the PATH International, the governing body of therapeutic horseback riding. In addition to the staff, over 100 volunteers help with programs every year. Caring, dedicated individuals are needed to work as volunteers. Minimum age to volunteer is 14. For more information about SPUR, please call 732-224-1367, email spur@monmouthcountyparks.com, or visit www.spuronline.org. park partners Formed in 1991, the Friends of the Parks is a non-profit charitable organization comprised of area citizens and businesses committed to the support of the Monmouth County Park system. In this day and age, when recreation funding must be stretched to meet the needs of a burgeoning population, membership dues, donations, and proceeds from special fundraisers furnish the financial assistance necessary to achieve a number of worthwhile goals. Throughout beautiful Monmouth County, the Park System manages more than 30 parks, golf courses, recreation areas, historic sites, and stream valleys for your recreation and enjoyment. The Friends realize how important it is to protect and preserve the more than 15,000 acres of county parks and open space maintained by the Park System. In events during the year, Friends meet and work with Park System staff and are able to share their views about the ways county parks can be improved and new programs developed. Over 200 years ago Monmouth County was a farm community whose entire population could be seated in the present day PNC Arts Center. Now, the county sits in the hearts of the eastern “megalopolis” containing one-fourth of the nation’s population. To the citizens of 1778 there would always be enough land, water, and air. Today we know these resources are finite and delicate. Thirty years ago, eleven members of the organization’s steering committee signed a certificate on August 1977 naming the Monmouth Conservation Foundation (MCF) as a tax-exempt corporation in the state of New Jersey, Then, as now, the Foundation’s mission was to acquire, hold, preserve and protect the open lands in Monmouth County. The Friends can provide a new outlet for your creativity. Do you have special talents Do you enjoy giving talks about your travels or areas of interest With the contacts you make at the Friends of the Parks, you can find ways to share your interests with others. You can help the Friends support programs for the disadvantaged and encourage development of innovative activities. Friends members receive publications such as the Park System Directory and Green Heritage and enjoy borrowing privileges at the Deep Cut Gardens Horticultural Library. Members also receive discounts on many Friends events. Join a circle of friends who share your interest in making Monmouth County a better place to live through the preservation of open space and the enhancement of county park facilities. Become a Friend of the Parks today. For an application form, call the Friends office at 732-975-9735 or download one at www.friendsofmonmouthcountyparks.com. Since its beginning, the Foundation has conveyed to the County of Monmouth and its communities over 4,500 acres of land dedicated to open space preservation. These tracts range in size from one acre to 416 acres. The rapid changes occurring in the country - from agrarian to residential and industrial - are even more obvious today than they were at the time of the Foundation’s first meeting. Hence, its mission is more important now than ever. The Monmouth Conservation Foundation’s strength in coping with these changes is its ability to act swiftly and impartially, free from bureaucratic and political restraints. In addition, it can commit itself to smaller ancillary projects that may be overlooked by larger organizations. For more information contact the Monmouth Conservation Foundation at PO Box 4150, Middletown, NJ 07748-4150; call 732-671-7000, email chorrigan@monmouthconservation.org; or visit www.monmouthconservation.org.
