Kendal and Georgia Neilson from Murrurundai conduct these clinics all around NSW and Queensland and even use their bison for competitions.
The bison are great for experienced campdrafters to improve their skills and also for beginners to learn the skills as the bison are calm, easy going and well educated.
Joining Wingham Ponly Club will be members from Coopernook and Armidale.
The community is invited to come along and experience what campdraft is about and see some unique animals.
One Wingham Pony Club member, Dylan O'Hara, will be polishing his skills ready for the National Campdraft Finals in the under-13 years Category at Tamworth s on the Australia Day weekend. This is a huge honour for him and well deserved for all his hard work. The club couldn't be more proud of Dylan, who was named the Times Sportstar of the Week on December 9, 2016.
The campdraft clinic starts at 8am on Saturday morning at the Wingham Showgrounds.
