Photo Contest: Team High Flown in Their Anniversary Uniforms
Especially for the 60th anniversary of the Dutch Welsh Pony & Cob Stud Book (NWPCS), Team High Flown designing polo shirts that the team members wore, among other occasions, at the Regional Show in Putten. Thanks to this wonderful initiative, the team won the Anniversary Photo Contest in the month of July.
“We wanted to do something fun to celebrate the stud book’s 60th anniversary, so we decided to have some polo shirts made,” says team member Floor Hahn. “On the front, from top to bottom, it says 60 Years of NWPCS.“
She goes on to say: “We thought this alone was a little boring, so we wanted to make it stand out a bit more. So we added our logo to the front and on the sleeve in small letters High Flown Stud. But that wasn't enough for us, so we came up with four fun sayings for the back.”
Four Proverbs
- My most prized possession is a spirited Welsh pony
- What makes me happy? A beautiful Welsh pony in the pasture
- Watch out! I'm riding a Welsh pony—don't just stay calm, step on it!
- Watch out! I ride a Welsh pony, which means I’m riding the very best pony, I’m strong enough to ride this gorgeous pony, and I’ve got the guts to say that a Welsh pony is unbeatable (as long as I don’t mess it up)—you’re no problem at all.
“We’ve received a lot of positive feedback about our polo shirts,” adds Floor Hahn.
The team has already worn the polo shirts at various events, including the JongKNHS South Holland Championship, where Floor Hahn rode the Section C mare Popsters Rosa-Blanca. The pair finished as reserve champion. They also wore the polo shirts at competitions hosted by the Rhoonse Ruiters, at the Rhoon International Day, and at various other competitions.
And, of course, Team High Flown participated in the Regional Show in Putten with the Polos
