RDA Awareness week

July 27 to August 3

Centres run a variety of activities during Awareness Week - contact your local RDA centre for details.

RDASA will be running a Badge Day in Rundle Mall on Friday August 1 - the official horses' birthday!   If we can, we'll have a pony for patting again. Sonny from Northern Area RDA and Mandy from Jennibrook Farm RDA have proved amazingly popular with passers-by in recent years.

Volunteers are asked to help join the team in the Mall - handing out showbags with RDA information and simply talking to people about RDA and what we achieve.  Riders and drivers as "volunteers" on the day will be most welcome.

Contact state office to register as a volunteer now, via the Contact form in the menu bar (left)

A Night at the Races

Annual Charity Dinner - Saturday October 18

It's on again - RDASA's annual fundraiser and fun-raiser! 

An evening of fine food and laughs and lots of barracking for unknown horses.  Footage of never-seen-before-in-Austrralia races.

All proceeds will be placed in the Hero Fund set aside especially to help buy good horses for our centres.

You can:

  • Sponsor the event!
  • Sponsor a race!
  • Donate auction items!
  • Buy a horse for the night!
  • "back" horses under lottery conditions!
  • purchase items from the quality auction!
  • Come along and join us for a great night out and celebrate RDA at the same time!
  • And anything else you can think of to ensure that we raise more money to buy RDA horses

We're only a phone call or an email away - contact us now if you want to be part of the action.  Use the Contact form in the menu bar (left)
