THE 8th Annual Horse and Gear Sale held at Cobargo Showground on April 27, 2002, was again a highly successful day with half the horses on offer going to new homes.

The weather couldn't have been better which showed by the large number of people who came along for a fun day out.

Cobargo Pony Club cooks did a marvellous job over the barbecue.

Alongside them were the Cobargo Pre-School workers doing great things with donuts.

Once again there were some great raffles with very generous donations from many people.

The winners of the special raffle were Ray Cullen of Quaama and Sue Waring of Cobargo.

Many thanks go to all those who donated the many prizes.

Hopefully next year will bring an equally successful 9th Annual Horse Sale.

Look out for it around April.
