BHRC & STAGBI ANNUAL AWARDS EVENT

5Jan

The BHRC & STAGBI will once again be staging a joint Annual Awards Event to celebrate the successes of members of both organisations during 2016.

The Event will be held at Daresbury Park Hotel, Warrington (WA4 4BB) on Saturday 25th February 2017.

The evening will consist of a three course meal (vegetarian option available, please specify) followed by the awards ceremony which will be hosted by the respected Thoroughbred and Harness Racing commentator, Darren Owen. For the first time, the BHRC accolade of Horse of the Year will be kept under wraps and announced by Darren on the night. Following dinner and presentation of awards there will be a disco to enjoy into the early hours.

The hotel is located near Junction 11 of the M56, rooms are available at the venue and advance booking is recommended. Due to the central location of the venue, alternative accommodation is available in the surrounding area.

Tickets for the event are £35pp and can be purchased via the BHRC Office (01405 766877 / bhrc.office@yahoo.co.uk). Payment accepted by BACS, cheque or debit/credit card. Full ticket price must be paid prior to the event and the last date to book tickets will be Wednesday 8th February 2017.

Tables are arranged in groups of 10 people, so should you wish to purchase for a group of 10 or more, tickets are available at the discounted rate of £32pp.

We look forward to welcoming guests from across the UK and Ireland to this inaugural event to join in celebrating the successes from breeding and the sport.
