Warrumbungle Sub Branch APSB
7th Annual Stud Pony & Open Horse Show

The Warrumbungle Sub Branch Australian Pony Stud Inc held their 7th Annual Stud & Open Horse Show on 30th September & 1st October 2006. The weather was great after a cool night.
We all expect some last minute problems in running any event but what a headache we had just 4 days before the show having to find another venue due to the requirement to now have to sign an Indemnity for the Lands Department of New South Wales absolving them of any liability with regard to the use of any Showground, Racecourse or Reserve owned by them and controlled by a Trust Committee. This indemnity covered access and exits from the ground, all structures and permanent fixtures as well as all other bits and pieces, paraphernalia, goods and chattels [appurtenances].
The APSB Insurance did all they could to make it possible for us to remain at Coonabarabran Showground – even to the point of putting additions and notations on the policy but that was all to no avail and we were denied access to the Showground. Only through the help of the Local Mayor and General Manager of Warrumbungle Shire were we able to move to the Binnaway Showground.
This is a very serious problem for all Groups now using Trust held Crown Land showgrounds so be warned the indemnity that they ask to be signed absolves them of any maintenance and upkeep responsibility.
Trying to let exhibitors know proved difficult, many phone numbers were unknown and with exhibitors been able to down load from several web sites. Emails were send were possible, the various web site changed, phone messages to those we could contact and asking them to pass the message on to any one that maybe coming. Various roads in the area were signed posted and signs placed on the previous venue, indicating were go, a short 30 minutes away.
We had exhibitors coming from as far away as Oaklands in the Riverina, to those coming from the North West and Northern areas of the state as well as the Central West of NSW. Some Exhibitors arrived on Thursday with more on Friday. It decided to have an impromptu communal BBQ on Friday night with everyone contributing something towards it. This was well received as was the BBQ held on the Saturday night for a small charge. Everyone enjoyed the social time together.

WARRUMBUNGLE SUB BRANCH APSB

A group of pony enthusiasts decided at Dubbo show in May 2000 that a Stud Show in the Western Region of the state was needed - hence the Warrumbungle Sub Branch APSB promotional group was formed.

We must say at the onset that witout the wonderful support by our local communities in the way of sponsorship it would not be possible to stage our show.

It started out as a one day show held at Gilgandra in October 2000, and after a few years moved to Coonabarabran which as over 100 stables that can be used, with camping on the grounds and hot showers.

We started with 3 Perpetual Trophies being donated for - Australian Pony, Shetland & APSB Welsh and over the following years, Perpetual Trophies for Any Other APSB Breed, Miniature Horse, Shetland in Harness, Horse or Pony in Harness and Grand Supreme Led APSB Exhibit.

The Group decided that they would have their own very distinctive coloured ribbons for Champion, Reserve Champion, Supremes & of course Grand Supreme. All Champion also receive a small trophy. These have been very well received.

Over the years the Group has also managed to purchased much of their own equipment so that now we don't have to chase all over the place for what we need.

With the APSB Society seeling to promote the various breeds of ponies, our group donated trophies for some APSB Classes at 2 agricultural show in the western region.

With a Supreme Trophy for "Any other APSB Breed" [ and with none of the lesser known breeds known in the area] it is hoped that some of these will attend to show off their particular breed.

Last year it was decided that as we had expanded to a 2 day show we would hold a BBQ on the saturday Night for a small charge and this went very well and everyone enjoyed the socialable time together and as one can well beleive equine topics were well discussed.

We have had feed back for exhibitors that it is a well run & friendly show. preparation for the next show starts immediately after the show, looking at ways to improve and changes that needed to be made.

Hope to see you at our Show in the year 2006 on Saturday 30th September [ starting 11am] & Sunday 1st October. [ remember that in NSW this is the October Long weekend] Schedules available in August by contacting any of the following:- Fax/phone 02 6886 1338 or Phone 02 6848 1060 or email: warrumbungle_apsb@yahoo.com.au or downloading the program from the coming events on this website.
