Peace Area Riding for the Disabled Society (PARDS) nominates Gordon Ingledew for Tim Hortons Volunteers of the Week! They wrote ‘Gordon has been volunteering with PARDS since September of 2022. After attending a Volunteer Orientation. Gordon initially took on 2 rider lessons leading, but when a need comes up to add a new rider he has been more than happy to step in and help. Gordon now volunteers 2 mornings a week. He comes in to groom and tack the horses getting them ready for riders and then leads and sidewalks. His calm, quiet personality eases nervous riders and other riders greet him with enthusiasm. While tacking or standing in the arena waiting for riders you can see him giving horses he works with gentle scratches letting them know, “we got this” and they know they can rely on him.’
