DEERFIELD, Wis. -

A Dane County nonprofit will be marching in the presidential inauguration parade in Washington, D.C. next month.

Deerfield nonprofit At Ease is a horse therapy group for soldiers, veterans and their families.

WMTV-TV reported the group was chosen to walk among the first few groups in President Barack Obama's second-term procession on Jan. 21.

The group started about three years ago at Freedom Stables and will send three riders and three horses to the parade.
