Horsing around at Tōmoana + Ice Skating
Help us look after our horse facilities, and finish the day with Ice Skating!
Join us at Tomoana on 30th September from 9 am for a hands-on volunteer day helping keep our horse facility in top shape. We'll be tackling general maintenance around the grounds - the primary focus is getting our horse arenas in tip-top shape, and a few odd jobs that make a big difference to the horses and the people who care for them. No experience needed, just a willingness to pitch in. Wear sturdy footwear and clothes you don't mind getting dirty, and we'll supply the tools, guidance, and plenty of good company. As a thank-you for your hard work, we're wrapping up the day with complimentary ice skating — the perfect way to cool down and celebrate a job well done.
