The Maryborough & District Western Performance Club Inc. would like to extend a warm welcome to our website. |
|
|
Our club began many years ago and is today going stronger than ever. We hold our western days at Maryborough Park, situated on the Bruce Highway. The grounds are located in Maryborough, which is only about a three hour drive north of Brisbane. There is a map on the link to Maryborough Park for your perusal. Being fully equipped with more than the necessary structures, especially the large under-cover arena makes these facilities the ideal venue.
You are able to camp on the grounds if you wish, to enquire you can contact Thea the grounds manager on 0427 773 760. Email: Thea.Griffin@frasercoast.qld.gov.au |

| We hold western shows echa month from April through to November. The show starts at 8.30 am, beginning with the Halter classes. The canteen is open for lunch, which usually takes place before the trail classes. At approximately 5.30pm the day ends with the English and reining events. |
Once a year we present a three day reining spectacular as part of a Tri-series with the Gatton and Caboolture clubs. This event attracts well over seventy competitors. It is a real eye opener, some come and ride or just be a part of the audience. The Pink Ribbon Open Mare Challenge with the Calcutta raising money for Breast Cancer Research is a thrilling & colourful Feature event on the Reining calendar. |
