HISTORY: W.E.C. Noticeboard

In the beginning W.E.C stood for Wellington Equestrian Community, however over time, and as the database became more widely known I have shortened the name to initials only, so as not to brand it as a Wellington only based service.

Recipients are from all over New Zealand (and around 200 overseas) – There are over 1,900 current email addresses on the database, and during the last survey, it is estimated that each person forwards these emails, on average, to another three people.That is roughly 4,000 (not counting who they then forward to) horse riders that are better informed on events and clinics in their area, that may not have heard about them before!

As the email service grew, a website was developed in 2009 to hold show and clinic programmes, schedules etc in one place, which then grew to incorporate anything relating to horses. This website averages around 250,000 hits per month.

The Database started in 2000 with around 60 people, in which programmes, notices, requests, wanted items etc was sent out – however by 2003 the database had grown and the requests were starting to take over - hence the WEC Noticeboard as it is now was established in March 2003.
