Subject: The Riding for the Disabled Association
Hi Christine,
Sorry I haven’t emailed lately —I’ve been very busy since becoming a volunteer for the Riding for the Disabled Associat
ion.
Every Saturday, I help to get the horses 61___________ for the disabled(残疾) riders. Many more disabled people want to ride 62___________ than you’d imagine. It’s a disadvantage that I don’t know how to ride —I’d love to got on long rides with the riders— but I’ll learn soon 63___________. Right now, I’m just happy to be able to lead the horses around for the disabled riders.
I’m 64___________ helping to organize a sale, which will be 65___________ next month. It’s a lot more work than helping the disabled. I need to collect second-hand things to sell at the sale. There are 66___________ things available(获得的) than I thought, but I’m sure we’ll have enough 67___________ next month.
I hope the sale raises more money than last month’s walk. It was rainy, so too few people took part in the event. Last week, we held an auction(拍卖). The auction took much less 68___________ to organize than the walk. 69___________, for some reason, people offered too little money for the things, so we didn’t raise enough money.
I’m 70___________ you some pictures in the letter, as well as a speech I gave last week.
Robin
