Harden Pony Club Working Bee

After the hailstorm last week, the working bee is desperately needed. The cross country course has taken a hit, and the Club needs all hands on deck to help clean up and get everything back in order before Grading, the ODE, and the Harden Horse Trials.

Jobs include:

• Clearing storm debris
• Staining & painting jumps
• Weeding & whipper snipping
• Changing the discs over
• Removing yard tags
• Tidying & organizing the shed

If you can spare even an hour, your help will be greatly appreciated! Bring along gloves, tools, and any equipment that might be useful.
