Fancy going on camp?

Posted on February 27, 2016 | in News

The Border Bridleways Association have a small number of places available on their Somerford camp.  Dates – Monday 25th to Wednesday 27th April 2016.
The course is comprised of groups of approximately six riders and we have full use of the marvellous facilities at Somerford Park Farm. There will be a non jumping group, at least one beginner jumping group and we try to cater for all abilities. We have experienced sympathetic instructors and we are a friendly, encouraging group. We also have talks in our lunch breaks so that we make the most of our time. On the final afternoon we enjoy the farm ride. The cost will be in the region of £160 with a non refundable deposit of £80 taken at the booking stage. Signs are that places are going to be snapped up quickly this time and it is first come, first served. The course is only open to members but membership is the princely sum of £7.50.
If you are interested and not currently on the mailing list please contact Liz Goda as soon as possible – egoda@btinternet.com. As of 22nd February we have enough riders for four rides plus a small waiting list. We would like five rides so if anyone out there is thinking of joining us, now is the time.
