The Australian Halter Showcase
Important Notice
It is with much regret & disappointment that the Australian Halter Showcase committee has unanimously decided not to hold the 2008 Showcase. After considerable discussion regarding the EI situation, the following items were taken into account: -
* At this stage the border crossing protocols between States have not been agreed within Government and are not likely to be until early 2008.
* Along with this, the AQHA has recommended against running shows until at least the end of February 2008.
* Given that the Bio Security guidelines have been & still seem to be nearly impossible to meet, we believe that the decision is the only and right one we could have made.
* Many of our sponsors and competitors are affected by the EI situation through their inability to be able to move their horses or conduct their business as usual.
* There are no guarantees and therefore we cannot place the AHS committee members at risk either financially or morally.
* Bio Security requirements are very difficult to manage and monitor at Werribee Park as it is a multi purpose venue.
We understand the disappointment of our loyal sponsors and competitors and look forward to a great 2009 Showcase with real anticipation.
The Australian Halter Showcase committee would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy and safe Christmas and New Year
