Annual Farmers Dinner – 28th February 2015 – Tennants Leyburn

IMG_0575[1]Richmond Motor Club held their Annual Farmers Dinner last night. It was a lovely evening and a great way to thank our landowners and gamekeepers for the use of their land throughout the year. Their support of the club is much appreciated and of course without it there would be no trials! RMC President David Peacock gave the vote of thanks and Norman Sunter replied on behalf of the landowners.IMG_0576[1]
