*****NEW!!!! – CLUB NIGHT*****

Friday 28 November

Friday 19 December

Friday 2 January

Friday night casual club night – this will be run on a few selected Friday nights at the WPC arena 6-8pm. 

This is a great idea from Mary Pagnamenta who has offered to run these evenings.
No coach is organised and no activity is set up. Members can turn up and do their own thing
Mary will be there throughout to open up , note names , generally supervise and intervene if
necessary and take action in an emergency.
Come and ride in the arena and do whatever you wish – flat work, some jumping, pole work etc

Some people might just want to enjoy riding in the park with others.
On a sunny Friday evening members might enjoy gathering for a drink and something to eat
together at the end. Another day someone might take orders for fish and chips….
The idea is to have a chance to use the facilities, ride with others, and have a good evening at the end of the working week, and possibly for some to have a school of some kind before a
competition at the weekend.
The only requirements are…
– If you get it out to use it you put it away.
– The expectation that everyone is there to be supportive to others, eg doing poles, helping someone with a hot horse etc.
– For paid up club members only.
Come along for some fun and moral support.
