Making Recovery Reality—Two Events, One Dream
Two Big Events, One Powerful Mission
Saddle Up for a Cause!
Join us on Saturday, June 14, 2025, for the 1st Annual Rodeo Fundraiser hosted by the Barber Gibbs Dream Memorial Scholarship! This unforgettable Western-themed event will take place at the scenic La Casa Bella and promises a fun-filled day for a great cause.
Guests will enjoy a BBQ-style dinner, signature Western cocktails, line dancing with a professional instructor, music, raffles, games, and surprises that capture the spirit of the Wild West—all while supporting scholarships and mentorship programs for young adults across Ohio.
Come dressed in your best cowboy boots and hats, and be part of this exciting celebration as we raise funds to empower youth, build character, and create strong communities.
This isn’t just a rodeo—it’s a mission on horseback.
