Take the opportunity to see the only privately owned memorial to the war horses in New Zealand dedicated to the horses of the 8th Regiment of the Canterbury Mounted Rifles at Birch Hill Station Cemetery with a Heritage New Zealand listing of category two. This monument is rare both nationally and internationally and built in 1937 by E.B. Millton
It is our duty as horse lovers to remember the 10,000 horses who left our shores to serve in horrific conditions. They deserved a medal but were never given one.
So come join in on your own horse/pony or walk with us as we make local history.

The attached pics are from the Thrill the World event in Christchurch's Cathedral Square on Sunday, where 'zombies' gathered to dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller. The event was held in various cities around the world to celebrate how we are all one community, regardless of our political, economic and racial backgrounds.

District council community projects officer Mike Kwant says people are still flouting the rules, despite the council's best intentions.
"We continue to be disappointed by the number of vehicle owners driving in the sand dunes of our beaches, especially Pines Beach.
"We have also suffered ongoing vandalism of fences put in place to protect both this natural environment and the safety and enjoyment of visitors," he says.
10th November 9am -1pm, 3 Freyberg St Rangiora.
Something for everyone.
A bit of rain wasn't enough to deter nearly 200 Canterbury kids from getting out for the inaugural Rakahuri Bike Blast on Thursday.
