ALLENSPARK, CO  February 29, 2012 – Weldon Lee and Lori Huff, noted wildlife photographers, are hosting a fund raising event, Our Heritage at Risk, for the International Society for the Protection of Mustangs & Burros (ISPMB), at the Roadway Inn, 1701 Highway 34, in Estes Park, Colorado, on Saturday, April 14, from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m.

Headquartered between Lantry and Eagle Butte, SD, ISPMB is unique in that it rescues entire herds of wild horses. Velma Johnston, better known as Wild Horse Annie, single-handedly founded the organization in 1960, making it the nation’s oldest organization dedicated to protecting and saving wild horses.

Karen Sussman, current ISPMB President and modern day Wild Horse Annie will speak at the event and be on hand to answer questions and sign autographs. There will also be door prizes and a silent auction. Weldon Lee, the man who talks to wild animals, will also be there, sharing stories of encounters with his “wild brothers and sisters,” including wild mustangs.

Cost of the event is $20 for individuals, and $28 for couples. All proceeds go to the ISPMB.

Public is invited.
