America's Champions with LT Dan (Navy SEAL) Ret and Rodeo Champion Brandy Crago

America's Champions hosts Special Guests from around the globe who "champion" America's values and hope for the world!

This weeks Special Guest is Rodeo and "Healing" Champion Brandy Crago. 

It doesn’t take long to realize you’re in the presence of a champion (National Champion that is) when you talk with Brandy Crago. As a Trick Rider, wife and mother, Brandy personifies the principles of the A.S.K. Force in her life’s ambitions. With countless injuries, including three (3) separate instances of a broken back (two from horses falling on her, and one from a motorcycle accident), Brandy’s immediate response was to get back-on as soon as possible, to overcome and correct the cause of the accident.

Brandy and Vaughn (her husband and former Rodeo Clown) now run the Shining Stars Therapeutic Riding program in Gettysburg, PA. A program that has touched the lives of hundreds of families, bringing hope to the most hopeless, and smiles to children never expected to smile. Shining Stars provides service and encouragement to the disabled, handicapped and challenged in south Pennsylvania and north-central Maryland. Their current goal is to expand the program to servicing Disabled American Veterans, and to reach thousands with the gentle power of their horses.
