Pheonix Riding Club had a great turn out on Sunday for their Dressage Day with somewhat cooler conditions than the last few Sunday events.
UYPC Beginners Gymkhana date is set for June 25, this was great fun last year and is open to all novice and beginner riders, lots of fun events and some novelty races, a handymount course and everyone’s favourite Fancy Dress. Great prizes and a really fun day. All questions from those just starting out and enquiries are welcome to contact Anita 0409 953 345.
If any local Pony Clubs are interested, an expression of interest notice is being put out for a Showjumping Weekend competition starting next year, asking if any Clubs would like to run a ring as a fundraiser for their Club and to ensure we have plenty of events on offer for those travelling long distances. The Hi-point winner for the weekend would win the Stephen O’Reilly Memorial Trophy that has recently been
returned. Please chat to Anita with any questions or to raise any interest in participating.
Camping and yards are available and there is plenty of arena space to run multiple rings simultaneously.
Sponsorship for events is always hard, and after Covid lockdowns, it seemed to get even harder, but some local businesses have been so generous still to all the local clubs’ events, so the clubs would like to say a huge thank-you on behalf of all competitors, club committees and club members for the amazing support that they continue to receive.
