Raemelton Therapeutic Equestrian Center
Stable and Office Assistant Summer Intern Job Description
RAEMELTON THERAPEUTIC EQUESTRIAN CENTER PROGRAMS
The mission of the Raemelton Therapeutic Equestrian Center is to provide Equine-Assisted Activities and Therapies to individuals with mental, physical, social, emotional and sensory disabilities. Raemelton programs are offered to individuals regardless of their ability to pay for services.
THERAPY RIDING
Horses move four dimensionally – up and down, side to side, back and forth and through space all simultaneously. These planes of movement are transferred up from the horse’s pelvis into the rider’s pelvis and core system. Strengthening of the core muscles provides stability in balance, improves breathability, ambulation and digestion. Research shows that students who participate in therapeutic riding can experience physical, emotional and mental rewards. For individuals with impaired mobility, horseback riding gently and rhythmically moves their bodies in a manner similar to a human walking gait. Individuals with learning or mental disabilities are motivated by riding to increase concentration, patience and discipline. If a psychological or emotional disability is present, the unique relationship formed with a horse can help improve interpersonal relationships. Furthermore, self-esteem and trust are gained through building a relationship with an equine partner – thus promoting leadership and fostering independence.
THERAPY CARRIAGE DRIVING
Many of the same benefits from riding occur in carriage driving. The movement of the carriage and using the reins strengthen core muscles; build upper body and arms, improving stability, balance and breathability. Therapy Carriage Driving is appropriate for those who prefer to drive rather than ride, or cannot easily transfer onto a horse or are over our weight limit of 180#.
CARE-an Equine Facilitated Learning Experience -for youth at risk of not achieving their full potential-
Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL) is an educational approach that incorporates equine facilitated activities using the experience of equine/human interaction in an environment of learning and self-discovery. The goal of Raemelton’s CARE EFL program is to assist individuals with emotional challenges in their lives by creating an avenue for them to develop coping skills and gain life skills. Caring for a horse provides an opportunity for positive social interaction. Learning the respect and control of their horses becomes a valuable first step towards controlling their own lives. The skills that at-risk teens gain through the CARE program are improved communication skills, development of self-confidence and development of healthy and positive relationships. These skills will lead to a road of emotional health and independence. Students in this program gain coping skills by focusing on topics such as: making good life choices, verbal communication and problem solving, coping with depression, nutrition habits and choices, anger management, self-esteem, increased attention span, boundaries and body awareness as well as trust and empathy. **Eligible candidates for this program are: 5-18 years of age with no criminal record. **
HOOVES FOR HEROES VETERANS PROGRAM
Raemelton Therapeutic Equestrian Center offers active, in-active or retired Veterans, and their families, Therapeutic Riding, Therapeutic Carriage Driving, Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL) and Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP).

Summer Intern Job DescriptionSend application to St. Luke’s Point of Grace2 Marion Ave.Mansfield, OH 44903
Contact supervisor Paul Lintern: [email protected] (application may be e-mailed)
Mansfield Church History Museum Researcher
St. Luke’s Point of Grace (PoG)is the location of a large photo image entitled “Mansfield — City of Churches,” depicting a time when 16 churches in close proximity downtown were the major landmarks in the industrializing community.
To enhance that, St. Luke’s PoG will feature a stairway and lobby area showing flat historical displays of each of the churches — independently and intertwined with each other.
The summer intern, a college student working toward a degree related to history, communication, religion or community service, will work 32-40 hours a week at $10 an hour for 10 weeks, interviewing key persons in each of the congregations that have at least 100 years of history in Mansfield in order to obtain images, names, dates and stories that will fit in the overall presentation. These are not comprehensive histories — individual congregations can maintain those — but a seeking out of material that is unique to specific venues, interesting to the general public, and indicative of occasions of cooperation between the churches of Mansfield.
Final result will be artful displays on foam board, plus a presence on an internet venue yet to be determined.
The applicant should have an interest and background in history; communication skills such as interviewing, writing and photo manipulation; faith in its full variety and as it pertains to community life; time management skills and balance to move forward with each congregation’s presentation; promptness and ability to keep a schedule and an drive that allows the embracing of a project.
The intern will work in an office at St. Luke’s that will be primarily theirs, on a Macintosh computer using Pages and iPhoto, although much of the time will be spent in the field — at congregations, and in the Sherman Room at the Public Library. Regular contact with a handful of local historians will also be a benefit of the job.
Supervisor will be Paul Lintern, president of St. Luke’s PoG who will have regular contact but as little ‘over-the-shoulder” supervision as necessary. The intern must embrace an excitement over being a self-starter and independently driven. That in no way implies that the intern will be working strictly on his/her own.
Intern will be a contract employee who will receive a 1099 form at the end of 2017, and will be responsible for his-her own taxes. Payments will be made on the Wednesday following each week of employment.
EDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Current college student (history or library interest welcomed)
RESPONSIBILITIES:
1. Unfold court records, file in acid-free folders and boxes, and label
2. Photocopy all acquisition material found in individual collections to add to administration files
3. Sort unprocessed collections (including court records) for ease of access
4. Pull any staples, paper clips, plastic sleeves, notebooks and things that will damage material over time
5. Abstract key information for a database index to collection (hand notes and computer entry)
6. Develop finding aids for collections
7. Note any collections containing original photographs for separate Ohio Photographs Archives project
8. Scan selected items as directed from collections for web site, including cropping, OCR and optimization
9. Possibly work with other interns and volunteers in completing an archival project
8. Practice accepted archival and preservation methods in completing the above
EDUCATION:
Interns will learn the basics of archival work - the five A’s - acquisition, appraisal, accessioning, arrangement, and
access. Specifically, these include: Principles of provenance and original order, basic conservation skills, preparation of
succinct and informational finding aids, determining the user’s needs through a plan of access, volunteer training and
supervision, and knowledge of genealogy and basic archival procedures. They will also learn the basic of scanning
procedures to provide a means of access through the Internet for these original materials.
SUPERVISION:
The archival processor will work with the librarian and will supervise library volunteers working on archives
projects. The OGS Board of Trustees also has a library advisory committee whose members may provide some supervision
and advice.
SERVICE:
The archival processor and other interns/work-study students/volunteers at the Ohio Genealogical Society Library
will serve the public at large and members of the organization who are tracing family heritage, working on local history
projects, etc. Our goal is to develop an archival processing program with an emphasis on digital access points to educate
the public about our holdings and their past.
OGS currently pays student interns $10/hour for archival processing if grant funding is available. Interns generally work a minimum of
10 hours per week (and up to 40 hours). Hours may be selected but must be within library hours (Mon through Sat, 9 AM to 5 PM).
