Siddington 2016
V good p2p today - advanced parking looked grand, well done. Thanks.
A huge THANK YOU, for everything that you all did to make this year's point-to-point such a successful event. It was enjoyed by many and all areas appeared to be beautifully run and organised which can only be done through hard work and enthusiasm, well done to everyone. An event which is enjoyed by many, is usually a reflection of the attitude of those running the event and the atmosphere that they create, which more usually can only be done by willing volunteers with a determination to make it happen. This you all did without exception and for which I thank you.
Excellent day all round.
Please pass on thanks and appreciation to the ptp committee who did such a great job in organising Saturday (even the sunshine – how clever). We had a fantastic day as did our guests, all who commented on the professionalism of the event and seeing so many friendly faces. I know it can seem a thankless task if no one acknowledges the effort from the minority to please the majority so I wanted to say THANK YOU.
What an amazing day Saturday was. It is always such a great day.
Yes - you were right, they were absolutely brilliant car park spaces. We did have an absolutely BRILLIANT day (from ages 22 months to 73!)
Chairman's Message
As always our thanks go to all our followers who do so much to make the VWH the friendly hunt it is and for the tireless work done by so many running great fundraising events . Sadly this spring and summer most events will have to be cancelled or postponed due to the current lockdown but do please check this website regularly which will be kept up-to-date with news and events when possible. Of course we very much hope that all will be easier by the autumn and we look forward to another good season.
Gavin MacEchern
Chairman of the VWH Hunt
