15 days to go!

Today, with grateful thanks to our amazing sponsor, Alex Townsend from Wallaby Hill and Bucas Horse Rugs Australia, we spent the day preparing the going on course.  The machine is going to be in action all weekend, and we hope that riders will appreciate the hard work that is bring put in, to bring them the event that they want!  It is important to remember that clubs bring events to the riders, for the riders, and therefore, should support the clubs.

Entries are open until Monday the 18th of September, with the late fee waived.  While there is now a wait list in place for the EvA80 class, we expect to be able to fit everyone in with a little bit of juggling – so don’t be disheartened.

This Saturday (the 16th) we are holding a working bee at the park to prepare for the upcoming (in 17days!) event.  No expertise needed, just some of your time and effort to help reduce the load.  Looking forward to seeing you there.
