The Wild Horse Sanctuary and Arthur Court Designs ®

A Good Match Between Two Northern California Originals

Update 12/13. They have gotten a grant to secure 1,800 of the acres, so now they need funds for fencing and for the remaining 3,000 acres+.

The Wild Horse Sanctuary In 1978 the Wild Horse Sanctuary founders rounded up almost 300 wild horses for the Forest Service in Modoc County, California. Of those 300, 80 were found to be un-adoptable and were scheduled to be destroyed at a government holding facility near Tule Lake, California. The founders of the Wild Horse Sanctuary decided to rescue these unwanted horses and create a safe home for them. And just as quickly, they launched a media campaign to bring attention to the plight of these and hundreds of other wild horses across the west that eventually led to a national moratorium on killing un-adoptable wild horses. The Sanctuary is located near Shingletown, California on 5,000 acres of lush lava rock-strewn mountain meadow and forest land. Black Butte is to the west and towering Mt. Lassen is to the east. To Support Their Efforts to Buy the 5000 Acres The land is being sold by the estate following the previous landholder's death in 1998. The sanctuary has until Dec. 31, 2002 to raise over a million dollars to buy the land where more than 200 wild horses and burros roam free.

Arthur Court Designs ® Where Arthur Court goes, wolves attack, volcanoes erupt, and strangers drop in who change his life in a moment. You may find him having lunch with the head of the FBI, sleeping in old Indian caves, or whipping off a best-selling design in a Honolulu bar en route to visit the tribespeople of Ifugoa. Enjoying success after success, wrought at times from intense adversity, he arrives ultimately at the creation of the aluminum work for which he is perhaps most famous, founding the magnificent line of designs and products that will endure the test of time. -- from Arthur Court Designs ® 35 Years of Innovation.
