This afternoon we had visitors to our museum, before they went onto the Aoraki Foundation evening at 100% Homemade.

Their guest speaker Andrew Ritchie, came and checked out our display honouring the Ritchie Family, his Grandparents started Ritchies Bus Service in 1935, in Temuka.

He is pictured beside some model Ritchie and Intercity buses made by a Dunedin employee of Ritchies, Larry Markham.
