Summer Camp 2023

This year we visit Rectory Farm for our Summer Camp, for the first time.

This is being heavily subsidised for our members at £200 per child and booking closes on the 28th April. Details on how to book are on the Rally Bookings page

Arrive – 23rd July at 9am

               Trot up from 9am

               Tack up after trot up

               Ready to ride at 10am

 

               Parents can then set up stables and the campsite.

 Parents are welcome to stay and watch or pop in to watch throughout camp

 Wednesday 26th   1pm –  SJ competition followed by prize giving

 

In a change from previous years there will be Rides and Teams.  Rides will be decided based on ability of the combination, Teams will be formed of children of different age groups with the older ones to help the younger ones with all yard duties, tack cleaning etc and there will be a prize for the winning team.  The SJ comp on the last day will also be in teams and any other small competitions throughout the week. 

All ages are welcome at camp but children 8 and under will need an adult to stay with them overnight. Camping is £10 per tent for any adults staying, and you must arrange your own food (We think the children would prefer to eat away from their parents). Rectory farm will be doing all the catering for the children and it sounds like they will be very well fed!

Children over 8 can be left for the duration.

 Bedding for the horses is provided and you will be very pleased to hear that the stables don’t need to be emptied (just mucked out) on the last day.  You will need to provide feeds and hay for your ponies (Please note all ponies must have something to eat at feed times, this can be just a handful of chaff or a carrot).
