Pippa CarronA large proportion of this web site including much of its structure is a reproduction of the book written and compiled by Pippa Carron, "Equestrian Handbook and Directory - Canberra Region". It is with much gratitude that we thank Pippa for her previous work and her permission to reproduce it here in electronic form. Pippa's new business can be found by following this link to Secretariat Australia. Pippa's acknowledgement page is reproduced below:
A very large number of people assisted in the production of this book. I would like to extend my appreciation to all those people who willingly gave details of their equestrian businesses, or helped track down some of the more elusive entries. Without their help, this book would have been a very slim and useless volume indeed.Specific thanks are due to the following people: Beth Stone (Secretary of the ACT Equestrian Association) for information on clubs and societies; Sandra Mason (Secretary EFA-NSW) for information on the EFA; Brian Triglone of Saddleworld Canberra for information on the Equestrian Retail Traders Association; staff of the National Capital Agricultural Society for information on the Royal Canberra Show and Regional Shows; Geoff Price and Kerrin Styles of the ACT Government Horse Holding Paddocks Section for information on Government paddocks in the ACT; Chris Houghton (CIT Rural Studies Centre) for comments on pastures and fencing; David Munnings of Hall Rural Centre for a list of rural contractors; and Mr Warwick Johnston of the NRMA Technical Department Canberra for advice on horse float towing regulations. For the use of their photographs, I thank Jeanne O'Malley, Rhona Kenyon and Sandra Burr.I am indebted to Sandra Burr and Beverley Payne for proof reading the text, and to partner Richard Arthur who helped in a thousand personal and professional ways to ensure that this project was completed on time.
