TOY RIDE: Dozens of horses and riders rode through the streets of Parksville on Sunday during the annual Silver Spurs Toy Ride for the Society of Organized Services. Members of the Silver Spurs Riding Club collected toys that go to the SOS toy shop for needy families so children can have presents at Christmas. Above are Margo Rathburn and her granddaughter Emma, 4, who is riding Amy Jo, an 11-year-old Shetland pony.
