Marina Fay Memorial Show 2022 Ireland's top miniature horse show, all money goes back into making this show better and better!!

Not to be out done, here are the Supreme Champion sashes and Reserve rosettes for under and over 34" supreme classes at this year's Marina Fay Memorial Show at Greenogue Equestrian Centre Sept 5th 🥰 I'm blown away and can't thank TJ Bell enough for the hard work she put in.

Sponsorship from Kerry Bog Ponies by Ashcar, helped pay for this work of art by T. J Bell! They are the champion sash and reserve rosette for our first Kerry Bog Pony classes on September 5th. Hope you love them 🥰

Because of her passion for horses, especially these little ones, Marina's family, have chosen to remember her annually, by putting on THE Best non-profit show we can in her memory... Let's make the 2021 another great show one to remember!!!

As you all know, it costs money to put on a great show, and as this is a Memorial Show..... we would like to invite you, extended family, friends and show attendees to sponsor a class or a championship in memory of YOUR favourite horse or pet, past or present - or your personal/business name either in cash or prize. Your class/Championship will then be highlighted on social media platforms and on the programme. Cash sponsorship can be as little as €25 for a class with bespoke rosettes, or championship rosettes and sash €50.
Thanks so much for your ongoing support. 💚
