There is a very special event coming up this weekend at Shirley Heights Equestrian Centre: The Gembrook Riders Club.
The Gembrook Riders Club are running a fundraiser for the CFA to obtain more training opportunities in large animal rescues on 17 October.
In an area so densely populated with horses and other larger animals, training tools and education are extremely important.
Organiser Sue Van Sprang has been instrumental over the years in raising funds and awareness to all aspects of large animal rescue.
Please come along and give a donation and have a great day out, entries are now closed but you can be added to the wait list at the Event Secretary.
Training mannequins are close to $20,000 to purchase and are vital to gain the skills needed for rescue of large animals, so please dig deep and give what you can, you never know when you will be needing this expertise.
