Equine Rescue of Aiken Gives Horses Second Chance
Equine Rescue of Aiken, located at 32 Glenwood Drive, Aiken, was established in October 2005 when Larkan Steele purchased 80 acres to aid abused and neglected horses. The facility, run with volunteer help, has adopted out several horses including a Thoroughbred off the track, and plans to expand to more stalls and a center-aisle barn.
