Pony Racing Taster Day – Bangor-on-Dee
Camp
45 members had 4 amazing days at camp. The members were able to develop and improve their riding skills in flatwork, show jumping and cross country.
- Jonty Evans had a long day on the Tuesday teaching 6 of the 7 groups. Working on rhythm and approaches to jumps.
- Steph Wilson came along one lunchtime to give a talk on equine physiotherapy. The members were taught how to feel for the bones of their pony’s neck.
- On Tuesday evening, after a hot dog and fries meal, all the members joined in a fun games session and rounders.
- On the final day all the members rode a dressage test and a show jumping round.
I would like to thank:
- Geoff and the Monk family for allowing us to hold our annual camp at Mostyn Farm Ride
- The granny army – Jo, Lindy, Siân and Sue – for organising the lunches, etc.
- Jonty Evans and Steph Wilson
- and the coaches
