Horse fundraiser - As a result of a very successful event, Hooves for Hospice raised $8,000 for Hospice Wellington. The cheque was presented to hospice representatives on Nov. 4. Lynn Smillie ran Hooves for Hospice, raising the funds by inviting 50 horseback riders to participate in a fundraising ride in October at her farm. One of the riders raised $1,600 on their own. Attending the presentation were, from left: Janet Veldhuis with horse, Hamlet, manager of communications and events for Hospice Wellington John Gilbert, hospice volunteer Cathy Crosby and Smillie with horse, Noah.
