Waimarino Adult Riding

Once again the Waimarino Adult Riding Club's annual fun gym khana was a resounding success. Despite indifferent weather the 1 6 riders including five non-members enjoyed a varied programme of flat, jumping e.vents and games. The young judges, all pony club members and children of the riders, did a great job, also gaining valuable experience. The mini hunter trials, not a normal gymkhana class, proved an exhilarating experience for several who had not ridden a cross country for many years and all completed without mishap. Thanks went to judges Cameron and Virginia Morris, Anna Pointon and Natalie Hodder. Results were: Best rider, open: 1 Nicole Renaud; 2 Heather Cooper; 3 Adrienne Maru; Best rider, novice; 1 Serena WhyeJoyce; 2 Robyn Hodder; 3 Joy Henderson.
