Treasurer report given by Lea

Johnny Frick asked the group to let him know if we are going to have the Christmas Party at the same place as last year and use the same caterer. We will discuss at our next meeting and let him know.

Discussions among the group members about whether our group is a riding club or a charity group and it was finally agreed that we ARE a riding group and will assist our chosen charities (Camp Kemo and Sister Care) in any way possible. Ron stated that the Blue Knights were so impressed with our donations that they are going to donate to Camp Kemo also.
