Thursday evening saw the first ever
ARBC Horse Sale with eight horses
listed for sale, with Mr Rick Meredith
as our auctioneer. We had many bids
come in for these quality horses and
we endeavour to build on this horse
sale for next year’s event.
We wrapped up the very successful
ARBC Derby Show with a sit
down VIP dinner to celebrate all
competitors and winners at the
ARBC, with over 120 attending this
superb finish to a great 4 days of fun
and competition. It was at the VIP
dinner that the big cheques were
presented to the winners in front of
their peers. Many attending were
thrilled to be able to sit down with
fellow competitors and friends at
the end of a satisfying show. It didn’t
stop there, after the dinner everyone
headed downstairs for some drinks
at the ARBC Saloon with some light
entertainment that all enjoyed until
the wee hours.
We are already planning for the 2017
ARBC Derby Show and Stockman’s
Challenge, it will be held on the
Wednesday 12th until Saturday 15th
April 2017 at the Dalby Equestrian
Center and we look forward to
welcoming you all along.
