Since friday the activity at the race track has been constant. Dressage arena is set up, obstacles prepared, some final paint job done, flowers planted. All those little things that makes it all come together.
We've had some lovely warm weather lately, and most people seem to have been spending their days at the beach. So have I in a way :) Painting the water obstacle and getting a tan, nice combination! It's just a shame the water have evaporated, but don't worry, we will fill it up again for you :)
Finally the sun is shining over Sweden! It's time to get cracking with all the paint job in the obstacles.
One obstacle is currently being painted black. Boooring? Nah, not when the accessories are added. It turned out so well, love it! There Swedish Championships were held i Vaggeryd back in 2012. We then had covers to one of our obstacles in the colours of the Swedish flag. So for our Nordic Championships new covers are in the making :) A Norwegian flag is also in the making, but we temporarily ran out of red fabric. :)
We've spent the whole weekend building obstacles. We are basically finished with all the building work. Unfortunately the weather didn't work with us on the Sunday, so not as much paint-job done as we would've liked. Sunny Saturday: Rainy Sunday
We are giving our obstacles a make-over for the Nordic Championships and that work has now begun. This little cute machine made a good job getting all the new poles down in the ground. That's the worst part done!
More to do next weekend! We put this banner up the other week, to be visible from the E4. Unfortunally the wind felt otherwise and blew it loose. Luckily the banner don't seem to have taken any damage. It's now up and running again, secured even tighter this time!
New committee meeting today! Making hard decisions and trying to be on top of everything.
Members of the committee are: Gunilla Granberg Emelie Lindeborg Robert Johansson Lars Strömqvist Helena Johansson Mats Eriksson Pia Fungby Jonas Englund Agneta Gustavsson Jessica Svensson Ulrika Wass With these nice vest the committee is hoping to promote the Nordic Championship.
