Hoofprints mission is to transform lives through the unique relationship between horses and humans, fostering physical, emotional, and behavioral growth through equine assisted activities. Located in Miamisburg, offer programs for kids (8 years and up), teenagers, adults, couples, and families.

HoofPrints offers Equine Assisted Mental Wellness; this experiential learning goes beyond traditional ‘talk therapy.’  It gives support to traditional clinical counseling. Students will interact with the horses in their own environment around the farm. These non-riding activities allow true bonding between horses and humans. They understand that horses can unlock potential and give insight to ones self. Our Facilitators are Licensed Mental Health Professionals and hold several Equine Assisted Activities Certifications.

Thanks to a generous donor, they are lowering their program fees for the Summer of 2025! Rather than offering single scholarships, we decided to apply scholarship dollars to every family

Their Horsin’ Around program is for all kids ages 8+. The kids will be playing games with the horses and well, just Hangin’ Around with each other. It’s an excellent time to get them outside and get connected. It is also a perfect time to bring a friend who is curious about HoofPrints.

Horses Healing Humans will be facilitated by certified grief counselors from Life, Grief & Co. These grief specialists understand that each person uniquely experiences grief. We are offering two sessions: one for youth and one for adults. Regardless of where you are in your grief of a loved one, we hope that you will find some peace after sharing yourself with our horses.

About Lisa Grigsby

Lisa Grigsby is a Special Events Director with over thirty years experience in promotions, event coordination and public relations.

Owning Jokers Comedy Cafe for 20 years taught Lisa to maintain a sense of humor under pressure. She credits Leadership Dayton for exposing her to the amazing assets of the region and Clothes That Work for being her reason she stayed in Dayton. Her proudest accomplishment as a past president of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association was creating Restaurant Week, a twice a year tradition that continues to grow and benefit local charities as well. As a foodie, it's only natural that she continues to promote local restaurateurs with DaytonDining.

As a Dayton Catalyst, her desire to have ONE community calendar and advocate for the amazing assets of the region helped create the vision for the relaunch of DaytonMostMetro, now Dayton 937.com
