Goring Horse Trials 2018

Goring Heath Horse Trials Friday 30th – Saturday 31st 2018 Hill Bottom, Goring Heath, Oxfordshire Programme £3

By Kind Permission Merricroft Farming Richard Hazel

Goring Heath Horse Trials Please don’t let snow stop play!! As I write this, we are all very confident but this weather is making a habit of taking us by surprise!

This year, along with many other events, we are taking a new approach on recycling. There is a massive amount of waste at Horse Trials & we are asking everyone to do their bit. We have organised waste bins that will be labelled appropriately for the disposal of rubbish & where we can, we will be encouraging the reuse of cups for your coffees & teas. We always do try to recycle the unused stationery but we will be making much more effort throughout the event to do our best for the planet! Please join us.

As ever, we must thank all our gallant band of volunteers. Goring really could not happen without them. We are deeply indebted. We are also very grateful to our sponsors. We have loyal supporters who have been with us for many years & have also attracted some new backers. Thank you so much to these companies. If you are able to express your gratitude to both volunteers & sponsors, we would be enormously grateful.

And of course - thank you to you! We sincerely hope you have a fabulous Goring – just like us!

Volunteers The committee are enormously grateful to all the volunteers that give their time so willingly & freely, in support of our Horse Trials. Bacon rolls & hot drinks greet their arrival in the mornings. Lunch is provided (packed for the fence judges who have to stay at their posts all day). Refreshments are offered throughout the day. A BBQ on Saturday evening for all the helpers. Without the help of all these willing folk, we could not run this event. Please show your respect & appreciation.
