Hi Fellow Amateur Team Members

Equitana 2018
WOW – We WON the Kelato Peo-
ple’s Choice Award for Eq-
uitana 2018. The Quarter
Horse was voted the most
popular horse displayed
in the Breeders Village by
the general public. Equitana
showcased the Amateur and
Youth Divisions.
A group of dedicated, com-
passionate and enthusiastic
volunteers worked tirelessly
to achieve this momentous
achievement. Once again, it
proves that when there is not
the letter ‘I’ in the word team,
amazing things can happen. Every
one of the following team deserves
recognition and don’t be too shy to say
congratulations to these people when
you see them – they represented our
amazing Quarter Horse Industry.
Amateurs – Aimie Holmes, Janet Mans-
ley, Dylan Hughes, Kim Gaunt, Carol
Elliott, Rachel Elliott, Yasmin Lee-Steere,
Leonie Gorski
Youth - Amber Denton, Charlotte
Mansley, Chris Holmes, Mikayla
Gaunt, Mia Gaunt
Others - Matt Freiberg, Lana Kelder-

The Equitana Display was all based
on educating the general public
about the amazing attributes of the
Australian Quarter Horse.
