Central Ontario Pony Club 2004 Regional Quiz Results

On Saturday, March 27, members of 18 Pony Club Branches took part in the Central Ontario Region Quiz at Sutton District High School in Sutton. Quiz includes an oral test, a written test and a visual test, in which competitors must identify unusual horsey objects. Teams can also enter display projects based on one of several pre-set themes (separate competition). The divisions in Quiz are based on age and knowledge level. The D, D1 and D2 levels are for the youngest and least experienced pony clubbers, the C level for the intermediates, and the A/B level for the oldest and most experienced. D and D1 competition is on a team basis only, while the others compete as both individuals and teams.

Here are the highlights.

First, the team standings. At the A/B level Uxbridge-Scugog took first, with a mixed Waussnodae/Prince Edward County team second and Eglinton in third spot. At the C level the team from Maple finished first, a mixed Northwoods/Tynedale team came second and Oshawa was third. Maple entered two teams in the D2 competition and its Maple 2 team came in first, with Bowmanville second and Centaurus third. At the D1 level, first place went to the Victoria 2 team, with a tie for second between Prince Edward County and the Eglinton 1 team. Toronto & North York took first at the D level, with Simcoe 2 second and Durham 2 third.

In the display projects, which are combined Branch efforts with competitors from all levels taking part, Oshawa was the winner, with Maple second and Bowmanville third.

The top four individual competitors at the A/B and C levels qualify to form teams at each level to represent Central Ontario at the National Quiz in Prince George, British Columbia on Thanksgiving weekend (subject to the winners’ availability, not yet confirmed). At the D2 level, ribbons went to the top individual competitors. They are:

C Level -Maya Kenedy of Maple, Hayley Goodchild of Tynedale, Alicia Cantin of Eglinton, and Dawn O’Neill of Ajax.
