Nostalgia: tense faces and beautiful stallions at the CHK

With the upcoming stallion inspection just around the corner, we’re looking back at a key stallion inspection from the past. Do you remember what year this was? And who do you recognize in the photos?

The healthy excitement felt by breeders, presenters, owners, judges, the public, and organizers has been a part of the Central Stallion Inspection in Ermelo for years. You can see it in the photos below, and it will be palpable once again on the weekend of February 8 and 9. Joy and disappointment go hand in hand. And there are always those beautiful stallions in the various sections. Just as there have been for years! Yet a lot has changed as well.

Jubilee

In 2019, we will celebrate our 60th anniversary as a studbook, and we at the NWPCS certainly do not want to let this pass unnoticed.

The anniversary committee is busy putting together and carrying out a program of celebrations. You’ll definitely notice more of this this year. Last Saturday’s New Year’s reception marked the successful kickoff of this year of celebrations.
