Leg Up Farm
Penn National is proud to be the future home of Leg Up Farm’s second equestrian-based treatment center for special needs children. To be built on 16 acres of donated land adjacent to the Homestead Cottages neighborhood, Leg Up will create a state-of-the-art therapeutic riding center and treatment center for the benefit of special needs children and their families. Penn National residents will have the opportunity to volunteer at Leg Up, providing kids with the “Leg Up” they need to reach their therapeutic and educational goals.
