June 2022

Hello to all our Friends of North Shore Riding for the Disabled. Term two has had its mix of weather, just as we had in term one, but for the most part we've managed to just get on with riding. Some highlights of the term are a coronation fit for a King, the graduation of six of our long term riders and the recognition of a number of long serving volunteers.
