This year, for the first time, we entered a team in the Windsor Lions' Big Splash Swimathon. We completed 73 laps (or 146 lengths) in an hour. Thanks to the swimming team of Colin, Ellie, Frank, Marian, Rebecca, Sarah and Sue and to David, our non-swimming captain. And a very big thank you to all our very generous sponsors.

The Group had its annual visit to Windsor Home Park on what turned out to be a lovely sunny day, despite the threatening skies.
We had three great drives by the river followed by a picnic at the cricket pavilion.

There are more photos in the Photo Gallery.

We had two entries in the disabled class at the Royal Windsor Horse Show this year - both turnouts looked really smart. Major was driven by Alex with Maddie as the RDA Whip and Ellie in attendance as Groom. Kate drove Casper, our Shetland pony, with Sally as the RDA Whip and Jenny in attendance as Groom.

Congratulations to Ellie who passed her assessment to become an RDA Whip with flying colours!

Ellie is shown here on her first drive as a Whip with Matthew, one of our new members, and then with Reshma, another new member.

The Christmas lunch at the York Club was a great success with 40 people attending.

Ann, one of our longstanding members, presented Sally with a flower arrangement and a book commemorating the Diamond Jubilee Pageant in appreciation of all her hard work and commitment to the group.

Thanks to Frank Rainsborough for the photos.
