Scenes from Red, White & Boots for vets at Pal-O-Mine in Islandia

|

Boots and denim brought a Western touch to Pal-O-Mine Equestrian’s Islandia farm Thursday night, as veterans and supporters gathered for the first-ever “Red, White & Boots.”

The Nov. 5 fundraiser paired food and music with mechanical bull riding, axe throwing and casino games inside the nonprofit’s indoor riding arena.

Organized with United Way of Long Island’s Mission United and United Veterans Beacon House, the event raised money for veterans programs at Pal-O-Mine and United Veterans Beacon House, supporting services ranging from equine-assisted programs to housing.

Greater Long Island photographer Eric Micallef captured the evening. Scroll for photos.
