Pony Club Field. Holt
What an incredible day at our West Hants Pony Club Summer Show!
With over 150 entries, the rings were busy, the atmosphere was buzzing, and the smiles were endless. A huge thank you to everyone who came along to support — riders, families, spectators and of course our amazing volunteers. This show simply wouldn’t have been possible without the huge amount of help, hard work and support. From setting up the field to running the rings, writing scores, handing out rosettes, and keeping everything running smoothly — you were all brilliant. Congratulations to all our competitors, especially our class winners and those who took home the annual trophies. We hope you all had a fun, friendly, and memorable day. Here’s to another wonderful year of pony club fun and our special community spirit.
