Northern Hills Pony Club would like to THANK YOU the following:
Every single rider and their horses, spectators, supporters, and visitors for making this day such a great day.
Emily our hack ring judge and Nanon our Steward along with Kristen kept the ring running like clockwork all day.
To the awesome Show Jumping team of our judge Greg and scorer Christine, along timers Cheryl and Peter supported by Kristina meant the show jumping was so smooth and efficient all day.
To the Announcer Carol who kept everyone informed with the proceedings of the day. (we hear that she even had time for selfie or two).
To the Games Queen Sue who showed her years of experience in having the games with such precision. Also, thanks to our scorers Emily and Georgia.
To the standout Canteen team of Maggie and Sue who were there all day (behind the hot BBQ) making and serving such lovely food. – thanks also to Rona for making the lovely soup and the ever-popular Akers Ways Cakes – cupcakes.
Thanks to all that helped setup – Martin , Anne, Kirsten, Alanna D, Nanon, Alanah M, Sonia, Helen, Sharon, Natalie and Hannah(how good were the start finish flags for the show jumping)
A big thanks to everyone single person that helped take down the show jumps and help set up for games.
On behalf of Karen Hill our First Aid officer we would like to recognise that we had an event with no falls.
Clearing the arena at the end of day Sonia and Rona not the loveliest part of the event but one that needs doing.
Oh yes and the weather for making it a beautiful day.
We would like to recognise the huge contribution that Alanna D and Kristen have made – Thank You
So, all of this would not have been possible without the endless hours that Sharon and Helen put in leading up to the event on the day and after the event. SO a big big big thank you to both of them.
The raffle was a great success, and we would like to thank everyone that bought a ticket.
2020 has been a year that has seen so many events cancelled so we are truly thankful that with so much help from so many people we were able to be able to host this event.
