Clubs combine for disabled riders

 

The Combined Peninsula Service Clubs will hold an entertainment night to raise funds for the Riding for the Disabled at the Everglades Country Club on Tuesday, January 29, starting at 6pm.

The feature entertainer is Gary Kirkby, better known as The Man from Snowy River, who will be supported by local singer and guitarist Krystal Keller.

Gary Kirkby plays guitar, sings, cracks whips and tells stories in a characteristic Australian style.

Krystal Keller is establishing herself as a vocalist of the country-rock style, performing the standards as well as her own compositions.

Riding for the Disabled was established to provide the experience and freedom of horse riding for members of the community who did not have access to such opportunities.

Funds raised will be used to build and equip a new indoor arena at Somersby so riding can be enjoyed all year round.

During the evening, a raffle will be held of a quilt with a horse theme made by local quilter Jenny Brock.

The ticket price of $28.50 includes a three-course dinner.

They are available at Nelson's Chiropractic Centre, 80 Victoria St Woy Woy. Phone 4344 3599 for more details.
