This weekend's showjumping event in Dannevirke is expected to be a big drawcard amid other events being downsized or postponed.
The annual Central and Southern Hawke's Bay showjumping event has always been a big event drawing the crowds, according to Alexa Dodson.
Dodson, who has lived in Dannevirke for five years, is one of those helping to run the event.
She says she's always been involved with horses and attends a lot of showjumping events.
"We all follow a circuit."
