October 5, 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last weekend’s Cooyar Campdraft had to start half a day early because of the high number of nominations for the popular two-day event.<\/p>\n

The campdraft had originally been scheduled to kick off early on Saturday morning and finish late on Sunday.<\/p>\n

But with 838 nominations and at least 450 horses packing out the Cooyar Showgrounds, the event was forced to kick off half a day early on Friday afternoon, the same as it did in 2015.<\/p>\n

Cooyar hosts two campdrafts every year: a one-day draft in March, and the bigger two-day event every October long weekend.<\/p>\n

They’re both popular fixtures on the State\u2019s campdrafting circuit, attracting competitors from all over south-east Queensland, along with many local campdrafters keen to test their skills.<\/p>\n

The Cooyar Show and Campdraft Society said they were very pleased with the roll-up for this year’s event.<\/p>\n

They were even more pleased the weather stayed fine on Saturday and Sunday after the area received some rain on Friday morning.<\/p>\n

A number of entrants nominated for multiple drafts, and camped in the grounds to wait for their events to come up.<\/p>\n

Those who stayed over had the choice of a campfire concert at the Showgrounds on Saturday night, or attending a rodeo that was running at the nearby Cooyar Hotel.<\/p>\n
