Fun at Riding for the Disabled Open Day
The smiling faces of the riders who participated in the Open Day
THE sun was shining on the enthusiastic riders and volunteers at the annual Riding for Disabled Open Day at Palmwoods Park, Hunchy.
A couple of hundred people came along to support the organisation and enjoy the riding display and other attractions such as hay rides, market stalls and a classic car display.
Member for Nicklin Peter Wellington opened the proceedings and Channel Seven’s Justin Veivers donated and presented the trophies to the riders.
It was a real community event, the Palmwoods-Woombye Lions Club held a BBQ, the Palmwoods Boy Scouts helped with car parking, the Palmwoods Arts & Craft group held a stall and the local CWA helped out also.
The Burnside School Band entertained the crowd and the Corvette Club travelled up from Brisbane to dazzle with their spectacular cars.
But of course, the day was all about the club, the riders and the dedicated band of volunteers that keep this worthwhile organisation running.
The riders, who all received trophies, were: Joanne Jarvis, Ryan Thrupp, Nathan MacIntyre, David Ashwood, Virginia White, Caleb Bull, Damien Doman, Harry Wood, Derell Spring, Deborah Clayton, Angela Spiro, Nicola Wilson, Sapphira Mienert, Lauren Mienert, Emily Ames, Nathan Darling, Samuel Meninga, William Proctor, Brendon McCurley, Melanie Lang, Troy Grundemann and Samuel Hutchinson.
Riding for the Disabled has been operating in Palmwoods for 21 years and are always looking for volunteers.
