Equine Program Receives Gifts

In April 2001, Vela Corporation, under the guidance of Al Felice, president of property development for the company, kindly donated $5,000 to our equine science program in recognition of the equestrian community's appreciation for work done in the program. Al and his wife Sarah are horse lovers and horse owners, particularly interested in draft horses and driving. Every year they come to the Horse Facility on Picnic Day to see our exhibits and demonstrations. In April of 2000, their corporation donated $1,000 to our program. The monies will be used to support our teaching and outreach activities.
