We know you've been on the edge of your seats all morning, so here it is.
It's official, we have the best competitors of any eventing competition on the calendar! Hawkeye Hughes and the clean-up crew rolled up to the grounds this morning, and here's what she had to say about what she found:
"Overall, a solid A+ effort by our fantastic competitors over the weekend.
Sadly, the area near the office came last, with some manure under trees and hay in the mulch pile.
The people behind the round yard and near the warm-up put in a great effort with the exception of a few very small let-downs.
A brilliant effort was put in by the windmill campers with solid work put in by everyone there.
But the winners, by an absolute country mile, were the day parkers on the gravel from the hall all the way to the farriers shed. There was a smattering of hay here and there, but absolutely not one single pile of manure left behind anywhere. This is a never-heard-of-before feat that left even our event director Jan speechless."
Honestly, you have no idea how much your effort is appreciated. We could see people cleaning up as they went all weekend long, and for our clean up crew to arrive this morning with very little to do, is the best thank you any organising committee could ask for.
So a big thank you to every rider, not just from Hawkeye and her crew, but from the entire committee. You're the best and you're welcome back at our events anytime!
