We were all very saddened to hear that Shiella Baird passed away on the 29th
May 2011 – Sheilla had a passion for showing and breeding ponies with her family.
She had many successes in the show ring and bred many fantastic ponies under
her prefix Marapona. She had a vast knowledge and was a great supporter and
committee member of the WA Riding Pony society for many years. Our thoughts
are with her family.
