Scholarship
At Cindy’s Memorial Service, her brother spoke of his sister’s “love of travel, golf, cooking and horseback riding.” After her death, he found a note pad and pen on a table in her house, as though she had just written her thoughts. On the note pad was a list of things she enjoyed the most, one of which was “horseback riding at a dude ranch.”
Thoughts of our friend Cindy will remain with us as we continue to ride at CR Summit Riding Club in Steamboat Springs, CO.
In memory of Cindy Bischof, CR Summit Riding Club provides complimentary and discounted riding activities to a child, teen or adult who is/has been a victim of domestic violence or simply a child in need. Candidates will be selected in December & April of each calendar year. Week of instruction will be scheduled during our open season June-August and will vary with each recipient.
