Throughout our 13-week sessions, over 318 volunteers devoted over 28,355 hours of service to helping children and adults with cognitive and physical disabilities achieve different successes daily. Little Bit has two flagship programs: Hippotherapy and Adaptive Riding. Hippotherapy is an intensive one-on-one therapy session with a physical, occupational, or speech therapist utilizing the movement of the horse as a treatment strategy. Adaptive classes offer highly individualized lessons in horsemanship taught by one of our PATH International certified instructors. The movement of the horse in both Adaptive and Hippotherapy improves core muscle strength, circulation, and flexibility. Working with certified instructors, volunteers and peers, riders improve self-sufficiency, self-esteem, concentration, verbal fluency and reduce anxiety. The emotional benefits along side the physical promote increased independency and in many riders a consistent outlet for joy.We offer training courses from the American Hippotherapy Association, level one and level two in alternating years. 2574 Little Bit hosts memorial horse shows to provide an opportunity for our riders and patients to showcase their riding skills. In 2012, we had nearly 100 patients and riders participate in a variety of skill levels to be judged on their abilities on horseback. This is a unique opportunity for many of our riders and patients to earn merit based awards and compete against peers in a sport that they train and practice for year round. 5435 9953 Little Bit offers workshops and certification for PATH International, the certifying body for therapeutic horsemanship, to educate and train potential PATH International certified instructors. We offer a Registered Workshop as well as a Registered Certification. Wa also offer an Advanced Level Certification every other year. In 2012 we offered the Registered Workshop and Certification. 1363525 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 13 0 1 74 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 X 14 14 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 WA X X The Organization 4258821554 18675 NE 106th Street Redmond WA 98052 Allison Young 1.30 X 0 0 0 Bruce Woodstrom 1.30 X 0 0 0 Christy Ghosh 1.30 X 0 0 0 Dr Jane Todaro 1.30 X 0 0 0 Gerlad Hirschler 1.30 X 0 0 0 Jeff Gollnick 1.30 X 0 0 0 Jim Boshaw 1.30 X 0 0 0 Kate Roper 1.30 X 0 0 0 Katie Knight 1.30 X 0 0 0 Kenneth Kleve 1.30 X 0 0 0 Kjell Oswald 1.30 X 0 0 0 Liz Leedham 1.30 X 0 0 0 Martin Pearce 1.30 X 0 0 0 Nancy Lobbiser 1.30 X 0 0 0 Robin Krueger 1.30 X 0 0 0 Wayne Miller 1.30 X 0 0 0 Will Miller 1.30 X 0 0 0 Michael Gaberman 1.30 X X 0 0 0 Sally Gregg 1.30 X X 0 0 0 Todd Cowles 1.30 X X 0 0 0 Mary-Lou Misrahy 1.30 X X 0 0 0 Kathy Alm 40.00 X 93717 0 7097 93717 0 7097 0 0 0 0 0 458458 543200 1042059 41232 2043717 Tuition 624310 393038 393038 Camps 624310 19200 19200 Seminars and Clinics 624310 9953 9953 Assessment Fees 624310 7730 7730 429921 6566 6566 185735 129905 55830 55830 9787 46043 826859 482021 344838 344838 344838 35250 458458 50731 -15481 -15481 29246 6409 22837 22837 Miscellaneous 900099 220 220 220 2888448 439708 46043 358980 7500 7500 85930 14058 25013 46859 855392 696022 159370 70732 43606 13348 13778 139000 103625 13916 21459 54886 54886 50465 50465 40039 36389 3650 132847 59251 35859 37737 21662 16053 1378 4231 43217 41588 604 1025 6809 4576 1473 760 184380 180299 1602 2479 18224 15145 2740 339 Barn Operations 120212 120212 Donated goods 41172 41172 Equipment rental, repai 17636 15936 802 898 Program events and clin 13760 4482 100 9178 1903863 1363525 188110 352228 353987 492900 274640 328996 171229 72152 28282 9193 42833 37080 7388851 647717 4876195 6741134 243752 253192 185679 189937 4181502 2504344 10358099 10628928 172253 492954 58179 92790 1391340 298683 1621772 884427 X 7954317 9024243 183110 121358 598900 598900 8736327 9744501 10358099 10628928 984585 23589 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 4647939 1394789 1242130 1781521 2046657 11113036 4647939 1394789 1242130 1781521 2046657 11113036 2138314 8974722 29895 56730 37279 19401 16353 159658 -70077 -154059 -3644 -227780 784 6068 1169 759 202 8982 11053896 2500449 0.81190 0.73130 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 600071 35156 1171 634056 610434 -4185 6178 600071 610900 11534 12000 610434 0.94450 0.05550 0 0 2584817 2584817 3700037 268030 3432007 393683 330073 63610 710314 49614 660700 6741134 Construction in Progress 2504344 2504344 Line of Credit 297318 Interest Payable 1365 298683 X 3044882 23589 2940 129905 156434 2888448 0 2888448 2036708 2940 129905 132845 1903863 0 1903863 Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48: Part X, Line 2: Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center is exempt from federal income taxes under the provisions of Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as an entity described in Section 501(c)(3).
