David Foster Ball thanks

MADAM,

THE organising committee of The David Foster Injured Riders Fund Ball would like to thank all those who contributed to another great fundraising event. Firstly, thank you to Horse Sport Ireland for their unwavering support and to our other sponsors – Fernhill Sport Horses for kickstarting the night with the champagne reception and Gain Equine Nutrition for their continuing support of the Media Awards.

We would also like to thank all those who so kindly donated auction and raffle prizes including Punchestown, The Minella Hotel, Westport Woods Hotel, Killossery Lodge Stud, Dubarry, Kilvahan Horse Drawn Carriages Eventing Ireland, Equilume, Hannon Travel Equiform, Colliers, Tayto Theme Park – your contributions are deeply appreciated. Additionally, thank you to all who came on board and took table sponsorships.

As always, an enormous thank you to the irrepressible and consummately professional Brendan McArdle who kept the night running smoothly and thank you to auctioneer Alastair Pim who gives his time so generously each year.

And finally, a huge thank you to all who came and partied until the early hours and we look forward to doing it all again with you next year!

Yours etc,

The David Foster Injured Riders Fund Ball Committee
