Western Welcome Week is honored to have the residents of RiverPointe Senior Living partner with Jane’s Posse, a Western Welcome Week group of fun loving volunteers that create stick horses for the Bruce Wolf Stick Horse Stampede. Western Welcome Week always accepts donations of fabric, yarn, ribbon, and stuffing for the creation of these fun, unique – one of a kind, stick horses. Donations can be delivered to the WWW office, 5890 S. Bemis St., Littleton 80120. WWW is a 501c3 public charity.

Wonderful article by the Littleton Independent: “Sticks and stuffing can build bonds” about Jane’s Posse and RiverPointe Senior Living.

The Bruce Wolf Stick Horse Stampede is a memorial event honoring long-time friend and supporter of WesternWelcome Week, Bruce F. Wolf. Bruce created the “Mayor’s Cup Stick Horse Class” in 1995 as part of the Western Welcome Week Horse & Pony Show to give the kids who came to the show an opportunity to participate. The event was renamed to the Bruce Wolf Stick Horse Stampede in 2008. The event is enjoyed by young and young at heart just as Bruce would have wanted.
