Shetland Pony Information Day & Get together

About 30 members attended an information day held at Catherine and Craig Crosado's Duncree Stud, Rolleston, south of Christchurch, on Sunday September 30, 2007. The programme included Preparing your pony for showing and the Dos and Don'ts of showing (including show etiquette and judging). It was a great day with everyone sharing their tips and having questions answered.
