 FULL GALLOP
Commission, Camelot Therapeutic Horsemanship, Inc.
Scottsdale, Arizona
Steel and leather

1999
When Camelot Executive
Director Eileen Szychowski commissioned a bell, it seemed natural to use
the nonprofit organization's own "homegrown" steel. Many horseshoeings later
("More horseshoes! Yes, more horseshoes!"), a bell was born.
It invites disabled students to mark the beginning and end of their lessons with a wallop. And they do.
"Many of them have never had the opportunity to swing a bat or hit something as hard as they want,"
observes Camelot's Eileen Szychowski.
In fact, Szychowski reports that each student is now asked to check in by taking a swing at the bell,
letting staff know when they have arrived and then when people leave the facility.
