Pony Club Camp 2008
Camp is over for another year. We were very lucky with the weather during the day. Only the little ones got wet when they went down to the river for a ride and went for a paddle.
Daytime activities ranged from dressage, show jumping, games, xc on the Bryn, team relays on the Park to a ride out in the beautiful countryside surrounding Cefn.
Evening entertainment was also varied. Mari toasted marshmallows and made popcorn on open fires with the mini campers. Geaorge Sturla & Terry Large brought their birds of prey, the Endurance Riding Group gave a presentation and all the campers went to Dolben Hall to do outdoor activities of Raft building and racing, mountain biking, team building, caving etc.
I would like to thank – Sir Watkin Williams Wynn for allowing us the use of his land, the parents who came along to set up & dismantle camp, cook all the meals and generally supervise during the evening and on pony lines. The Night watch people who had an onerous task of trying to get the campers to sleep every night and the instructors for all their patience during the day and making it fun most of the time when taking the rides.
Mrs Bradshaw, Meg Green and Mrs Fetherston haugh for riding out with the children.
I would like to thank you all for my lovely gift that I had from you on the last day of camp and hope that you all enjoyed your week up at Cefn.
