A week on and the mud has finally dried up ☀️
Our biggest year yet, with an incredible 140 competitors, 70 of those under 18!
It truly takes a village to pull together an event like this. A huge thank you to our small (but mighty) committee, you are all time poor, yet still manage to put in countless hours.
On behalf of our committee, I’d also like to thank everyone else who helps make this event possible.
To our judges and pencilers, those working the back yards with cattle and horses, our photographer, first aid, vet, cattle donor, and everyone who donated and carted hay for us, we are so grateful.
Thank you to the Rosewood Sports Club, NSW for allowing us to run this event once again on your amazing grounds.
A special thank you to our sponsors, we simply couldn’t do this without your support.
Thank you to the competitors and spectators who stuck it out through the rough weather at the start, there is no show without you!
Our goal has always been to run a family friendly event with a fun, welcoming atmosphere showcasing horsemanship while keeping our heritage alive. With a strong focus on our junior competitors, the future of our event, we truly hope we delivered that experience for you.
Special thanks to Bec Sim for being behind the mic all weekend and keeping everyone informed, such a huge job, and so appreciated!
Finally, thank you to every single person who got behind our little challenge and supported us.
We appreciate you all 🤍
