There was a fantastic turnout with members from many of the equestrian clubs in the West Moreton region attending the meeting and almost filling the hall. There was lively discussion when the meeting was opened for questions from the audience which clearly demonstrated how many are keen to have input and provide support to make this a successful community project that is accessible to all members of the horse community in the South East Queensland area.

Thank you to all who contributed to this discussion, with some great ideas presented, and the many questions which allowed our President Maxine to answer some concerns and provide a comprehensive overview of the project to date, and the forward vision for our world class equine facility that’s planned for Rosewood.

The official report from the AGM will be available soon here on our website
