Horse sports focus in Woodenbong

Woodenbong Introductory ODE and Horse Sports day on the weekend of July 7 and 8 was so successful many visitors have indicated that they will return in greater numbers and also suggested having more of these days as they would certainly be guaranteed of support. Laughter and good hearted competition were the order of the day and it was very satisfying that youngsters were able to compete and have an enjoyable time with their horses.
With participants coming from areas as far away as Cobaki, Cabarita, Alstonville, Coraki, Tabulam, Bonalbo and Warwick as well as the locals from our local villages and outlaying areas, the qualified and dedicated team who organised this hugely successful weekend event should be justly proud of the outcome.
They would like to thank the volunteers who gave their time and all who contributed in any way. The proceeds of the event will go to the ‘Border Ranges Pony Club’ who will be responsible for the purchasing more equipment to ensure greater enjoyment of future events.
The winner of the Woodenbong Challenge was Jacinta Grimmett and the winners of the ODE were Makalla Williams (Preliminary) and Sandra Reid (Preparatory).
