All were involved in some way with this special weekend of celebrating 10 years of this event, the largest of its kind in Australia with more than 350 horses and riders involved.
Several members attended the event last year as volunteers in several of the various aspects of the ride.
This year members worked in the administration tent, the timekeeping area, volunteer registrations and pencilling for the vets, as well as providing food for the 100 volunteers.
A small fundraising stall was set up with work made by members for many months prior to the event.
The small village of Wingello was transformed into a hive of activity with about 1000 visitors heading in to the village for the horse endurance event.
The event attracted a wide variety of riders from a range of disciplines, so spectators were able to see horses of every size and shape.
