“It is my resolve with my Executive Committee to have a legacy of a well-run Club that can survive age and time and offer to generations to come, a heritage of what we all have enjoyed as a family club. This is why as part of the 50 years celebration of our club; we had the Equestrian Games 2017, to engage the younger generations as well.”
“Our club is the heritage for all children to enjoy and bond with one of nature’s kindest animals, the horse. The Event featured children games, equestrian games, food and a raffle draw, where participants won fantastic prizes. While the children were busy with games, the parents took the opportunity to de-stress from everyday life to ride, take a nature walk, jogging or hit a Polo ball,” Barberopoulos stated.
