Our President, Hilary and her husband Trevor enjoyed a day at the virtual Regional Races on Zoom. There were around 7 clubs represented but only about 25 of us participated in the event.<\/p>\n

The organisers had asked that everyone wear a hat as there was a competition for the fanciest hat and the funniest with a horse racing theme.<\/p>\n

Using Soroptimist colours Hilary found a blue\/yellow(ish) horse on the internet and added more colour and drew a jockey and solved the problem of how to secure it to my head. by stuffing the picture down a lightweight snood – wearing that as a sort of headband. In an outcome that would have surprised Hilary\u2019s Arts and Craft High school teacher she won the silly hat competition!<\/p>\n

It was a fun couple of hours with introduction of participants and mascots, footage of 3 live races, a singsong of Blaydon races and a hoss(horse) or gloss(paint) name competition where participates \u00a0had to mime our answers(i.e. galloping horse with our hands or doing brush strokes of paint).<\/p>\n

Regional President Rosemary hopes to have raised at least \u00a3250 for Empowering girls in Nepal.<\/p>\n

Here are Trevor and Hilary dressed for the races.\u00a0 Well done definitely a winner.<\/p>\n
