Such a cool event happening not far from us at the National Equestrian Centre.

Tomorrow is the day!

A huge welcome to all competitors, spectators, sponsors, volunteers and supporters as we kick off the 4th Annual Bayleys Sheep Dog Trials.

The action gets underway from 7.30am tomorrow morning, with some of New Zealand's best dogs and handlers competing across five days of exciting competition, camaraderie and rural excellence.

We're proud that this event is not only a showcase of the incredible skill of our dogs and handlers, but also a fundraiser for the Greenlea Rescue Helicopter, a service that provides lifesaving assistance throughout our region.

Whether you're competing, cheering from the sidelines, bidding in the charity auction, or simply coming along to enjoy the atmosphere, we thank you for being part of this fantastic event.

Safe travels to everyone making their way to the National Equestrian Centre, and we look forward to seeing you bright and early tomorrow!
