Pints, Ponies & Pohlen β The McFarlane Mile ππ»
This Sunday 22 March at the Matamata Races from 12pm.
A great day out with a bit of history behind it and a bloody good cause. The McFarlane Mile honours the McFarlane family, with Fred McFarlane well known at the Matamata Gun Club where his Barrett Cup winning team (1938β1939) is still remembered.
If youβre heading to the races, grab a drink, enjoy the action, and throw a few dollars Pohlenβs way.
Canβt make it? Get down to the Merchant of Matamata, watch it live, and support it there with a Karma Keg pint.
Big thanks to everyone backing this and supporting our community.
Get in behind it.
