EASTERN SHORE PONY CLUB
REGIONAL QUIZ 2004

Eastern Shore Pony Club held its regional C Quiz competition on Saturday, February 28. Eight teams representing six branches attended, and we hope a fun day was had by all. Thank you so much to the teams for bringing along volunteers, food and some very entertaining skits!

A special thank you goes to the volunteers at each branch who worked on their stations, including "Bits & Bitting" from Annapolis, "Cross Country" from Colchester, "Charades" from Avon, "Bountiful Breeds" from Opportunity, and the very interesting "Harnessing" station from West Valley. Eastern Shore contributed a "Lexicon", a "Crossword Puzzle" and the always-entertaining "Win, Lose or Draw".

With the exception of a couple of minor glitches early in the day, the event ran very smoothly, and we at Eastern Shore would like to say that we will gladly run another C quiz next year. We were saddened by the fact that Fairwind Pony Club could not attend due to horrible road conditions in their area, but we are glad that they didn't put themselves in any danger by attempting to come.

We would like to thank Apple Saddlery for once again providing us with baseball caps to give out to our winning team and the top individuals. I would like to suggest that anyone who did receive a cap should send them a thank-you letter. Their sponsorship of our regional events is much appreciated.
