What a fabulous evening last week for prize giving at 5* Bridgehouse! Great company, great food and the perfect ending for this incredible season. And, it still goes on with Kim B giving weekly lessons and additional sessions such as Cowboy Challenge with Rhana on Sunday (photos to come). Thanks also to the Kims and Laurel (our Patron) for the presentation. Next year is our 50th Anniversary .... lots to celebrate. x

Thank you to everyone that came to the Community Event at Jubilee Park today, especially Lisa Mirfin who never lets us down with her adorable minis. Ruby & Macy got a good rally in with Kim in a make-shift arena in the driest area we could find! Fab sausages from Matakana Butcher cooked to perfection by the fund raisers for Snells Beach School. Thanks to Christine from Flow88 - great to work together. A shame more locals did not attend but the visitors definitely enjoyed it and we got to pack up the last of the jumps!

Had a walk round the grounds this afternoon, not quite dry enough for a horse unfortunately. Not great weather this coming week but then hopefully a dry patch after that.
I’ve left the few jumps out and lifted poles off the ground but there might be a call up for a full pack away soon.. 😢
