Please note - this is nothing to do with the official BreyerFest and is not endorsed by them in anyway. It's just a bit of fun run by the UK model horse community each year.
OK so normally we just do a few competitions and giveaways and things, but this year I've decided to make it bigger and better! So as well as competitions and giveaways we have some weird and wonderful other things for you to get involved in.
All live events will be run the Monday-Thursday so that they do not clash with any official BreyerFest events.
Daily Giveaways
We will be running daily giveaways on our Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/chestnutridgemodelhorses/
Each day all you will have to do is comment for your chance to win the item. There will be a total of seven items to give away!
Daily Trivia/Competitions
On our Facebook page we will be running daily trivia/competitions. This is basically what we normally do. We normally ask people to do things like guess the amounts produced of certain models or the surprise model so I haven't concluded what we'll do this year but I'll think of something!

There will be prizes available.
Model Horse 'Pub Quiz'
Please note changes.
The Pub Quiz will be held on Zoom and there will be no prizes offered. I have toyed with how I can make this work, I want to make it fun and interactive but also fair.
This is why I have changed it to a Zoom call. This will allow everyone to take part and actually interact with each other! It will make it more fun :)
To help prevent cheating or upset there will be NO PRIZES! So cheating will just make people angry at you and you will gain nothing from it. Also bare in mind you are on camera!

'Surprise' Models
Throughout the week of BreyerFest we will have 10 'surprise' Traditional scale models available on the website.
They will be priced at £35.00 each and will be wrapped up so even I won't know what you are getting!
We are going to put one extra special model in there but I haven't finalised what this will be yet so keep watching to find out :D
Auction Night
During our Auction Night you will have the chance to purchase 25 items as part of 99p start auctions. These will include a mixture of OFs, CMs, ARs, CTFs and Tack as well as some bundles or more unusual items.
20% of the money raised will be donated to The Bail Project: https://bailproject.org/
NB: A few items will be 100% charity listings will all the money raised being donated to the Bail Project. If you would like to donate an item as part of this please let me know.
Market Night
Our Market Night will be run on another evening. This is your chance to get your paws on a selection of really cool items! They will be first come first serve.
There will be fifty items available as part of our Market Night sale.
Again this will be a mixture of items.
Zoom Social
Our Zoom Social will be open to all model horse hobbyists over 18 years of age. Come together, have a chat, share some painting tips or just talk about whatever it is you guys talk about at live shows.
Over 18s only for a reason. People never behave.

This is an extra special seminar for BreyerFest Fun Week. This seminar will go through all the different elements of the model horse hobby, explain to you some key terms and tell you how you can get involved. It's designed for newcommers but will be suitable for all.
It will be held via Facebook live like our other seminars: https://www.facebook.com/chestnutridgemodels/
