Mini-treffen, and perhaps a Maxi-Treffen
Posted: Fri Jan 11, 2019 6:26 pm
I apologise for the late posting here, but I have only just found this area of the site.
In about one hour, I am leaving home with Haf on my new trailer to head three hours south to meet Rick (mechanical horse) at his home where he is restoring a Haflinger. There, we will be met by OzzieHaffy (kym) with his Haflinger, and his son, Brett, with a 712M Pinz.
I'm excited as I have never seen a Pinz (they came out just as I sold my first Haf), and I haven't seen another running Haflinger for 47 years!!
When I return home, I will of course post some photos here.
If this works out to be successful (and I'm sure it will be), I will be thinking about holding a bigger meeting later in the year, possibly at Rover Park near Tenterfield. This is the best venue I can find so far that is between Brisbane and Sydney. It offers camping as well as cabins, as well as 4x4 tracks and creeks/rivers. http://roverpark.com.au/#about
I'd love to hear expressions of interest, and suggestions of when. By the looks of the venue, I think it might be quite crowded on long weekends which of course increases traffic on its tracks. For safety's sake, I personally would prefer a "normal" weekend.
Time to start packing
Cheers

ps I have about 92 Haf and Pinz's in my 2018/19 Australian Haf-Pinz Register. It's based on the info from the old Haflinger Club of Australia site, but updated as much as I can. I'd love it if every Oz owner on here could confirm that have a Haf/Pinz nad its details. Just PM me.
