The Editor, Last Wednesday, I had the honour to be present for the first RCMP Musical Ride to be held in Richmond.
I was not alone. It looked as if half of Richmond was at Twin Oaks for the presentation. My family and I came with high expectations and we were not disappointed, the riders were excellent and the horses were beautiful.
The Musical Ride is a national treasure and I feel sorry for those who were not able to attend the event.
The Richmond detachment contributed by adding a small Sunset Ceremony to the event, I was filled with pride as I watched the members carry out the flag drills with great respect.
I thought of just how much that flag has meant to people in Canada and around the world. It was a wonderful evening and a great event for Richmond.
