This year there will be the opportunity for older members to once again attend camp at Somerford 13th – 17th August 2022 in conjunction with Pendle Pony Club. Members must have attained their 12th birthday by 13th August. All entrants must be capable of managing themselves and their ponies as this is a child only camp. No parents are permitted until the last day to help with the clearing up. . Price is £300 but all travel has to be arranged separately. Parents must provide accommodation, which could be horsebox, tent, trailer or other. (which can be shared). If you are interested in attending please contact Sharon separately to the local camp (sb@manx.net) for further information

Costs are approximate at the moment as this is such a new venture for us.

We are well underway thinking of new ideas for camp but would really appreciate your ideas too – what activities would you like to do at camp. Is there an activity you’ve always wanted to have a go at but never had the opportunity – let us know and we can see if it can be incorporated into camp. Maybe you’d like to try Carriage driving, lunging, vaulting, polo. What about the non-horsey activities – shooting, swimming, segways, den building. Would you like a demo/talk from a Vet, Farrier, Dentist? Have a think, talk to each other and let us know your ideas, we’re sure they’ll
be great!
For all camps there will be at least two opportunities per day to ride, practical demonstrations, stable management and above all lots of fun.
Whilst we encourage members to be independent at camp we appreciate that some members will need help and therefore we ask that parents volunteer on a rota basis to help with all children at camp, this might be assisting with tacking up, preparing meals or that all important job – poo picking!!
Once we have an idea of numbers we will hold a Camp Meeting to complete forms, check T-shirt sizes and give your further information about each camp. If you have any questions in the meantime, please ring Alice on 481510 or email alicecorrin@gmail.com
