Please help Strongwater Farm win a Gypsy Horse!

Strongwater Farm (formerly T.H.E. Farm) located on Livingston Street in Tewksbury is a therapeutic riding facility.  They help children and adults with a wide range of emotional and physical disabilities. It is a non-profit facility and relies heavily on donations and volunteers. Currently, Strongwater Farm is involved in a contest sponsored by LexLin Gypsy Ranch where they are trying to win a specially trained therapeutic Gypsy horse valued at approximately $15,000.00.  LexLin Gypsy Ranch is giving away five horses to PATH Accredited riding centers (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International) through a voting process on the LexLin Gypsy Ranch Facebook Page.  Four horses go to the riding facilities that receive the most votes.  The fifth center receiving a horse will be drawn via lottery.  Right now Strongwater Farm is in 4th place! The problem is the 5th place riding center (located in Florida) is beginning to come on strong and catch up.  I am asking that if you or a family member are on facebook, please take the time and cast your vote for Strongwater Farm.  It is easy to do and takes less then a minute.  You may vote once in every 24 hour period now through July 3, 2014.  To vote, you first must go to the LexLin Gypsy Ranch Facebook page and "like" their page. Then look for the link that allows you to "vote for your favorite EAAT center".  This will direct you to the voting page.  Look for Strongwater Farm and tap or click on the box located just above the photo for Strongwater Farm on the right.  Once the number increases you know your vote was counted! Remember, please vote every day.  Thank you!
