SUMMER CAMP
3-6TH MAY 2019
Join us for a fun-filled long weekend at Milton Keynes Eventing Centre over the May Bank Holiday weekend. The four day camp is aimed at EGB members who wish to develop their riding skills in a safe and fun environment with like-minded people. We cater for those just starting endurance and building confidence with their horse to those more experienced combinations up to advanced level.
Over the course of the camp there will be a focus on improving the horse's way of going, the riders balance and confidence and arming attendees with the knowledge to further improve their horse's training at home. Tuition is in small groups, with the main target of the camp being to develop greater harmony between horse and rider.
The price of £250 (£270 for non-members only if space permits) includes the following:
-
Stabling with straw bedding and haylage/hay (you can bring your own shavings)
