This year's Young
Riders Camp will be held from Sunday the 5th of August to late afternoon of the
10th August at Wester Gatherleys Farm, nr Dunning, Perthshire by the very kind
permission of John & Seonaid Paterson.
This year we are very lucky to have two special days of endurance training from
top international EGB rider Beccy Broughton who is also a qualified UKCC
endurance coach. Additionally we will have lots of riding out, flatwork lessons,
Quadrille, fun activities including non-horse activities like swimming, quizzes
and DVDs.
I also have a few new training sessions up my sleeve which I am in the process
of booking!!!
For those who haven't been before, all activities are included in the price of
£120 as is food, camping and corralling for the horses.
So if you want to come and have fun with other like-minded young riders from all
over Scotland, then please book your place using the attached form and deposit
of £70 (cheques payable to SERC) by the 30th of April.
Please be aware that spaces are limited and will be reserved on a first come,
