Board of Directors
Susan Robinson - President
Susan Robinson was born and raised in Lexington, TN & found her way to Paducah 20 years ago. Susan and her husband of 23 years, Kenny, were relocated here for Kenny’s job with the river industry. Susan continued her career in beauty upon her move here and soon found herself at a new nail salon where she became fast friends with her coworker Dara Triplett. Once Dara introduced Susan to her daughter Cassidy, she soon learned of Cassidy’s love for horses and she would spend hours trying to teach Susan all about them. In 2013 she was introduced to the medical concept of hippo-therapy through her great niece’s (Hailey) diagnosis of Angelman Syndrome. She saw the positive benefits, first hand through Hailey, of what this type of exercise can accomplish and felt the need to get involved. Susan had no idea what she was getting herself into, because the only knowledge of horses she had was what Cassidy had shared with her years ago. In 2014 she messaged Angie and had her first day set to train as a side walker and it is all history from there. Susan loves her time at Cassidy’s Cause and even refers to the barn as her “happy place." When she is not at the barn you can find her spending time with her husband on the golf course, being a mom to her 3 loving dogs, crafting or even riding horses now. Susan is very involved throughout the community & is also a member of Lone Oak Baptist Church in Paducah, KY.
