Patsy's House is an Appaloosa -- she could use a little bit of TLC, as there is some paint peeling -- and she protects a young foal, a nod to the organization's function. The foal is light blue, mostly covered with a red saddle blanket with white trim. Patsy's House herself is reddish brown, wearing a red saddle blanket that is trimmed with yellow, with the Patsy's House emblem -- a heart with a star -- on each side. Note the references to some of Patsy's House's donors on the saddle blanket, such as the Wichita Falls I.S.D., the Texas Department of Protective and Regulatory Services, the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners, the United Regional Health Care System, the Wichita Falls Police Department, the Iowa Park Police Department, the Wichita County D.A.'s Office, and the Wichita County Sheriff's Office. "B.P.D." probably refers to the Burkburnett Police Department, just north of Wichita Falls.

Background Story: The Mane Event began as a project of the Leadership Wichita Falls Class of 2007, with approximately 45 painted fiberglass horses being decorated by local artists, and then sold to sponsors and bidders at auction. The project raised $144,000 for Patsy's House, the Faith Mission, and Downtown Wichita Falls Development, Inc, and remain today throughout the city as a contribution to public art.
Leadership Wichita Falls, Inc. is a local non-profit organization dedicated to developing community leaders through a community orientation and leadership program.
