The Ashley Lauren Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing hope and help to children throughout New Jersey who suffer from cancer through financial, material and emotional support, held its 2015 COLTS NECK BARN TOUR on Saturday, September 12, 2015. This fundraiser is held annually in observance of September’s National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
Across the nation, thousands of courageous children fight pediatric cancer each year. The Ashley Lauren Foundation’s mission is to relieve the daily burden’s thrust upon these children as they battle this disease.
This event is a very rare opportunity to visit some of Colts Neck’s exquisite farms and stables where champion hunter jumpers and thoroughbreds are raised and trained.
Over 120 ticket holders toured four farms, which included Wellspring Stables, Colts Neck Stables, Yellowbrook Farm/Helen Goddard LLC and Stillwell Stables as well as a tour of the beautiful Four JGs Vineyards. The tour began with coffee and apple cider donuts donated by Delicious Orchards and ended with an old-fashioned BBQ plus entertainment by Jilly Sentino at Stillwell Stables.
Sponsors of the 2015 Colts Neck Barn Tour included Investors Bank along with Carol Stillwell and Mary Ann Larkin of Stillwell Stables.
