The Sumner School PTA is excited to welcome you along to our major fundraising event for this year; The Sumner Gold Cup - an evening at the races!Early bird Tickets $75pp if paid before Sunday 29 Sept, otherwise $80pp (tickets are sold in tables of ten)
**Please get in touch regarding individual tickets
Order of events:
-Birdcage opens: From 5.30pm doors, the bar and our very own STAB (Sumner TAB) open.
-"And they're off": 6.30pm Horse races* begin.
-Hobby horse racing: Racing culminates with the Sumner Gold Cup race, where guests will race hobby horses around a circuit in a quest to become the 2024 Gold Cup winner. Not only will the winner be able to strut around the community victorious, but we are also pulling in some awesome prizes which will be up for grabs!
-Fashion in the Field: It wouldn't be a Sumner party without fancy dress. For inspiration imagine The Grand National and Royal Ascot having a Met Gala love child. If top hats and floaty gowns aren't your thing then pour yourself into some Jhodpurs, or grow a tail and trot along as a horse. You do you, but in the eyes of our judges, bigger is always better!
-Racing will be followed by supper and an auction before we kick off our saddles and take to the dance floor.
This is an all inclusive event for adults only.
*There will be a series of randomly selected historic horse races shown. Bets can only be placed on the winning horse. For one race there will be an opportunity to buy the horse and the jockey with big prizes up for grabs . More information on this to follow.
