Presidents Message
Jan., 2021 Hello everyone, 2020 has sure been a year that has turned everything upside down! Hopefully you are all well and have managed to continue enjoying your Haflingers and are staying safe. Our membership has stayed strong and hopefully will continue to do so in 2021. There are no changes in club membership fees for this year- $15.00 per person, with no charge for youth under 19. (Members are reminded that they must have personal NSEF Membership and insurance to be able to handle the horses.)Our club had planned to sponsor the 4H Ground driving at Pro show and Haflinger classes at the Annapolis Valley Ex and the Queens County Fair. Unfortunately with the coronavirus those shows were all cancelled. Hopefully next year things will be better. Some of our members prior the virus participated with their horses at the MacMillian Show Center in Truro, N.S. in a 4H judging event. Due to the virus all major decisions have been made at the board level. I’d like to personally “Thank” them for working together though this year. The Board did decide to make a $100.00 donation to Hope for Wildlife. They decided not to do the calendars this year as a fundraiser. We did do a fundraiser through Sport Nova Scotia and raised $390.00 for the club. Our annual Christmas meeting and get together was also cancelled. Our Club Finances look fairly good, but the club needs to look at doing some kind of fundraiser to increase our account in order to cover our yearly expenses which include club insurance ($380.00), NSEF Club Membership ($50.00), Registry of joint Stocks (39.00) and other miscellaneous costs. Tim Bowser continues to update our web and Facebook pages. ‘Thank you’ Tim. Members are encouraged to submit pictures and info to him to share on those pages. The club would like to congratulate one of our member’s Gillian Allan in receiving the 2020 NSEF Community Award for her significant impact on the development, maintenance and positive atmosphere of our sport. Great job Gillian! This year (2021) is our 20th Anniversary of or club. If possible it would be nice to do a Registered Haflinger show to help promote the Haflinger breed. In closing I’d like to “Thank” the membership for their support over the past two years and hope 2021 will be a better year for everyone during this difficult time. Stay safe, and stay positive, Holly Stillwell NSHC President 2020 |

WORMING - Contributed by Janet Trimper
Worming trick that I tried today. Works quite well and no fight. I would suggest giving carrots at other times to avoid association. Someone else told me that they slather a piece of bread with the wormer, fold it over and their horse gobbles it down. Will try that next time. |
