It's hard to describe why teens find Horseshoe such a special life changing experience. The answer may be that Horseshoe is real... not a virtual reality, not a video game, not a sport or a ride at an amusement park. Horseshoe is people engaged in discovery of self, others and the power of building community.

Horseshoe builds relationships in a setting that eliminates distractions of today's culture (no radios, cell phones, TVs, computer games, alcohol, drugs, etc.) Everyone is called to become their best and to lift others up to become their best, to learn how to use their talents, and to return home ready to make differences for good.
