The newly-formed Shacks Barn & Buckingham Riding for the Disabled group had an end-of-term Fun Day planned for Saturday 16 July at Shacks Barn Farm near Towcester with a full programme of outdoor activities including countryside rides and a carrot treasure hunt followed by cakes and prizes. In the event it poured with rain and all those who braved the elements huddled miserably in the lecture room steaming gently and eating perhaps too many delicious cakes. However, spirits rose with the arrival of Roger Edwards, Chairman of the Buckingham Community Pantomime, an organization committed to creating fun and raising funds for charity. Shacks Barn & Buckingham RDA is one of the chosen recipients of Pantomime funds this year and Roger presented the group with a cheque for £400.  This money will be used to purchase stirrups with toe cages and safety helmets for the new riders from our waiting list.  So, in spite of the foul weather, there were smiles all around after all due to the generosity of Buckingham Community Pantomime.
