🎨🐴 A fresh new look at Skevanish!

Our indoor arena walls have had a makeover, with a lot of time (and paint!) going into the transformation 🖌✨

A huge thank you to our Chairperson Tammie O' Brien, who rolled up her sleeves and took the lead on the painting — it’s made such a difference and has the arena looking fresh and bright again! 👏🏻
