The brainchild of Central Hawke's Bay showjumper Claire Wilson, the CHB Winter Olympics is an annual fixture that just keeps growing.
The event, a showjumping competition with a big fun factor, began in 2010 as a fundraiser for Fleminton School, where Claire and Simon's two children — now both at college — spent their primary school years.
More recently the Winter Olympics has branched out into fundraising for local charities, Hawke's Bay Rescue Helicopters, HB Cancer Society, Rural Support Trust and this year, Kids Can, with all funds going to support Hawke's Bay children in need.
