Latham Centers’ Inaugural Donkey Dash 5K

About the Event

Latham Centers’ therapeutic donkey program (also known as Asinotherapy) is a unique part of our vocational and therapeutic programming. Our students and individuals regularly care for and interact with our six therapy donkeys under the guidance and supervision of Latham’s Donkey Trainer, Kris Thompson.

Many of you will remember our unique and fabulous Donkey Wedding held in May 2019, when two of our beloved therapy donkeys, ESTHER AND ESAU, tied the knot. It’s hard to believe that they will celebrate their 5 YEAR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY this spring!  In honor of this milestone, we wanted to let you know about an exciting new event happening in May, the Latham Centers’ Donkey Dash 2024!

Our inaugural DONKEY DASH will be held on Sunday, May 19th, at Hog Island Brewery in Orleans, MA. This FAMILY-FRIENDLY event will be a 5K road race for all ages, with a celebration, great food, and a raffle following the race. Our guests of honor, Esther and Esau will be there too - for petting and photo opportunities!
