The Hunter Jumper School and Show was held this past Friday to Sunday at the Moose Jaw Exhibition Grounds here are some of the photos from the event.
The photos are from Saturday afternoon after the event was delayed due to heavy rain on Friday evening and the need for the arena to be worked and some drying to take place to make it safe for riders and horses alike.
