Summer Camp is a very popular activity and this year was never more so. The weather was unremittingly wet but as always it didn't make a difference to the level of enthusiasm shown by the participants. As usual, some serious riding took place and many of the younger riders found themselves challenged to do more than they had ever done before as the competitive spirit took control. if you missed out this year make sure you keep an eye out for details of next year's camp.
2010 Camp
20th, 21st/ 22nd August
What a fantastic time we had again this year! It started with the BBQ on Friday evening with plenty to eat and lots to talk about . Everyone excited with anticipation ( and hoping that the weather would improve a little-though not daunted in any way).
On Saturday morning the turnout for the BTO was excellent with everyone making a huge effort to gain as many points for their teams as possible. The day progressed with jumping, gymkhana games and a very entertaing Musical ride which the teams had to choreograph and perform for points. This proved to be a lot of fun and we were all amazed at the ingenuity and standard of the performances.
The Surfing activity on Saturday evening proved to be hilarious. challenging, competetive and great fun and of course performances were scored and counted towards the team points
On Sunday there were jumping competitions, the accumulator, pick your own line and the unmissable 'Its a knockout!'
This is by no means a full account of the activities. You might hear a lot more about what went on from those who were there. ( I am sure individuals will have their own recollections of what went on both on and off the field. perhaps they would like to share these with us by posting on the Forum.)
