Celebrating Black Equestrians

When Morgan and Mariah Piper fell in love with riding at City Ranch, their father, Murray, didn't know the first thing about horses. All he knew was that his girls had found their spark, so he kept bringing them back. 

Six years later, the Piper Sisters are putting their 4-H skills to work. They're caring for their family's first horse, Dunkin, volunteering to teach other kids how to ride, and even representing Baltimore by riding in parades. 

This Black History Month, we want to celebrate The Piper Family by recognizing Morgan and Mariah and the future they represent. Stay tuned for more.
