PONY CAMP - MICHIRU STABLES 27 - 29TH JULY 2007
This was a great sucess with 13 children taking part. They were each put into a team and given a pony to look after for the weekend. The children worked incredibly hard scrubbing, brushing, carrying as well as riding and eating! The weekend finished with a small competition for the best Show Pony kindly judged by Debbie Murphy. Well-done to the winning team with their pony Speedy, their team also won the overall weekend followed by the Dales, Basutos and Shetlands. Points were given by Kathy for chores, preparation of meals and pony care, then added up to find the winning team. The Michiru Vaulters gave a thrilling display on the drum on Saturday lunchtime - Thank You to all concerned.
