Central Ontario Pony Club Regional Quiz Results

On Saturday, May 7, members of 17 Pony Club Branches took part in the Central Ontario Region Quiz at Keswick High School in Keswick. 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 members, 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.

We present highlight results followed by detailed standings by phase, to eighth place.

Final team standings follow. At the A/B level a mixed Prince Edward County/Uxbridge-Scugog/ Waussnodae team took first, with Maple second and Eglinton in third spot. At the C level a mixed Prince Edward County/Uxbridge-Scugog team finished first, Eglinton came second and King was third. In the D2 competition Ajax came in first, with Whitchurch second and Oshawa third. At the D1 level, first place went to the Northwoods team, with Simcoe second and Pickering third. Eglinton took first at the D level, with Ajax second and Centaurus third.

In the display projects, which are combined Branch efforts with competitors from all levels taking part, Ajax was the winner.

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 Ottawa on Thanksgiving weekend (subject to the winners’ availability, not yet confirmed). At the D2 level, ribbons went to the top individual competitors. They are:

A/B Level – Maya Kenedy of Maple, Allison Birdsall of Uxbridge-Scugog, Megan Mattos of Waussnodae and Brian McInnes of Eglinton.

C Level – Carolyn Wight of Prince Edward County, Alicia Cantin of Eglinton, Christy Chamney of Maple and Dawn O’Neill of Ajax.

D2 Level – Kristiana Cope of Whitchurch, Emily Gillies of Ajax, Johanna McKeen of Oshawa and Jessica McDonnell of Ajax.
