Wanaka RDA has seven riders who range in age from 8 years to mid 60’s. Our group meets at Timber Creek Equestrian Centre to ride on Wednesdays during the school terms. The exception is in winter when it is too cold. Every month a rider is chosen as rider of the month and is awarded a ribbon or a rosette to encourage them. At present 4 of our riders are preparing to compete in the Special Olympics Regional Summer Games to be held in Dunedin on 1st and 2nd December. The riders, Simon Scaife, Morgan James, Chloe Wigg and Anna Freeman have been practising each RDA session. They are enjoying the challenge and are looking forward to this exciting event. Wanaka RDA has been fund raising to assist the
riders to attend the event and would like to thank Ritual Café, Wanaka Four Square, Cheeky Monkey and Mitre 10 who helped by having our donation boxes in their shops. If anyone else would like to assist, donations can be made to Wanaka RDA, 196 Maxwell Rd, RD2, Wanaka. The photo was taken in May at our annual Ribbon Day where riders from other Central Otago groups are invited to compete with Wanaka RDA riders in Dressage and obstacle events. Wanaka RDA is an affiliated group of NZRDA. New volunteers and riders are always welcome.
