🌳 Fig Tree Pocket July Dressage Day 🌳
Another beautiful day of Dressage at FTPEC made possible thanks to an army of people. Firstly, competitions simply do not run without a long list of volunteers. A big thank you to our Friday jump pack down/ arena grading and set up crew in Anthony, Charnel, Molly, Luke, Justine, Lizzie, Emma and the Sing family 🙏 to our amazing Protocol Judge Emma Flegman for getting our members in shape on Saturday and to Karen for grading the arena again Saturday night. To our pencillers: Laura, Vic, Caiti, Angela, Caitlin, Emma, Alyssa, Mark, Kathy, Veronica, Kaitlin, Jaimee Lee, Rachel, Katie, Anita and Belinda for your tireless efforts ✏️ and our pack down crew in Katie, Viv, Emma and Laura.
A special shout out to Katie Heading for all the behind the scenes juggling from 6.30am to 4.30pm 🤩
There are many more that help with a thousand other tasks leading up to and on the day - thank you 🙏
To our 9 passionate judges: Belinda, Nic, Jen, Kay, Alice, Sarah, Jenny, Renee and Tara. Thank you for taking the time away from your own families and horses to share your knowledge ❤️
To the friendliest person we could ever hope for as a Steward, thank you Kerry (and Lola!) for running a tight ship and still keeping the atmosphere very relaxed and horse friendly 🐴
And finally, a big thank you to all our competitors for your ongoing support of FTPEC. It’s always humbling to see our events fill far in advance of close of entries. The camaraderie, encouragement and friendly (albeit still competitive!) spirit you bring to these events make them a joy to run - thank you 🥰
While the event may be over, one of the best parts will come later this week when the amazing Brittany from will have the album live 🥳
See you at our final Dressage Day in October ☀️
