I have been afflicted by the horse-riding bug since aged 9. No-one else in my family, back then or now has experienced this condition, but it never stopped me continuing as my favourite way to spend time.
I first started trail riding with Tweed club 13 years ago and soon became Treasurer. Since then, I have belonged to Gold Coast, Canungra, Red Rivers, Somerset clubs in the SE Qld area and even moved to Bouldercombe Club for one year. This has given me a large group of friends and many different experiences of ATHRA.
I love going camping with the horses and friends to explore new areas. I have travelled with ATHRA friends to ride in the Snowy Mountains, to break in a wild brumby, to Calgary Stampede and a Montana ranch, all experiences I might not have gained if I had not met such a great group of friends.
I decided to join the Board as I thought I would have time to give at that stage in my life. Life changes very quickly and I am now settled into a new home, a medical condition in monitoring stage and my job role changed significantly.
