Saintfield Christmas Charity Santa Ride
| Today saw the launch, in Rowallane Garden, of the 2013 Saintfield Christmas Charity Santa Ride. The annual Charity Ride, organised by Joan Cunningham [pictured right], is in aid of underprivileged children in Uganda and Rwanda whose parents have either died from AIDS or have been murdered.
Riders from the Showjumping, Eventing, Hunting, Racing and Showing world, not forgetting of course the Happy Hackers, will take part in this charity fundraising event – all dressed as Santas! On Saturday 7th December the real Santa and his Santa guests will ride from Saintfield Livestock Mart to the Christmas Tree on Main Street, arriving there at 1:00pm. This is a spectacular event not to be missed! Photos taken at today’s launch can be viewed HERE. |
