18.01.2022 This 15 second video is of three clydie mares that were put together for their first time three-abreast today, to give them a workout in readiness for the upcoming beginners driving training day we will be having in just under 3 week's time. Support and response has been tremendous, and all places are already booked out.

12.01.2022 After being postponed for 12 months, firstly because of severe drought and then Covid19 restrictions, the Qld Branch finally got to hold another training day and what a wonderful day it turned out to be. About 60 people - participants, fence-sitters, volunteers and caterers enjoyed a perfect (almost) summer's day up on top of the Great Dividing Range at the property of Joan & Ian Stewart-Koster. The day started early with the assessing of our trainee judges. In the absence ...of shows this year and next year still a little uncertain, it was decided that, although somewhat unorthodox, it could be done quite as well in this setting as at a show. We thank the three assessors, the three trainee judges and the four handlers who made it happen so professionally. Thank you also to those who helped out washing and plaiting the horses so they were presented as they would be for a show. So many people helped on the day that it would be impossible to name you all but a few deserve special mention. Thank you to our hosts, Joan & Ian, for allowing the use of your property, horses and equipment to encourage others to follow their dream - and move a step or two closer to fulfilling it. Thanks also to Neil Hall, Reg Hodgson and Hannah Willshire who also supplied and supervised horses for use on the day. To Joan S-K and Verna Hall - thanks for taking care of the onerous amount of paperwork, and thanks also to Jake and his team for looking after all the catering needs (the donuts were so good) Huge thanks go to Ian S-K for co-ordinating the whole event and especially for all the time spent ploughing through the tangled web of Covid19 regulations, registering our event with the Health Dept and ensuring we fitted within their rules. And to Hannah - special thanks for the hours and hours of time and work you have put into the horses over the past months to ensure they were at a level to be able to cope with many different drivers. I think the horses did you proud This is a selection of photos taken by Sharyn Hine - they capture the spirit of the day very well See more
