Friday….

Mandy(our chief coach) and I Rachel had the best day at Cuttery Farm with some of our Pony Club members doing some SJ and XC training. It was such a beneficial and amazing day 🫶 Thanks so much to all of you who made the effort to make the journey …. We loved our day with you all 😘

Meanwhile at LME, our awesome coach Sarah and our amazing yard manager Nat ran a super duper half term fun day. They crammed sooooo much in and the feedback has been wonderful!! Thanks so much to all of you who booked your young people in….we hope they had as much as the staff!!

We just LOVE LOVE LOVE the school hols!! One more super busy fun packed day left tomorrow

Morning All, I hope you are all surviving the heat….i personally LOVE it, but I am aware many people don’t 😂 and nor do some of our horses and ponies, so we have been busy keeping them as cool as possible with lots of cool showers and lots of ice poles for the humans!!

On Sunday we held our Pony Club Area Dressage Test Riding clinic. It was the hottest day of the year so far and we were super busy!! We had a morning full of our Junior riders and an afternoon full of our Seniors. Mandy (our chief coach) judged every test giving feedback and then our riders came in and rode a second test, hopefully with some improvements after their tips from Mandy! We have riders doing the lead rein test right up to a couple of riders who are giving the intermediate test a go which is amazing, plus all the tests in between! Big Thankyou to Lyn who did dressage writing for Mandy all afternoon 🫶

Hugest thanks to all of you who came along on what was the hottest day of the year so far. A huge shout out to all of you, but especially our Seniors who turned up, who I am sure had had plenty of offers to go to the beach/elsewhere on such a beautiful day. ‘We see how hard you are working and the dedication you are putting in to your sport and we are VERY proud 😘 Also the hugest thanks as always to our wonderful PC parents….we love you all 🫶

Warning….super proud post incoming 💖

On Saturday we headed off to the Devon County Show with four of our most experienced games riders. It’s a big atmosphere at this show and they ride in the main ring, so we always have to ensure we have taken riders and ponies that will cope in that environment.

We were racing against some very fast games riders and with only four riders in our team instead of five like the others, we went in there with zero expectations, but I quickly noticed that quiet steely determination amongst the girls that now I recognise in them all too well!! Not only did they race their socks off making us so very proud, they also WON the races by a whopping 14 points!! Proud doesn’t even come close.

We managed one practice for DCS amongst everything else and that was only with three of the team! Lanta had only sat on the pony she took a handful of times before and Harri was not on her usual games pony either!!

We are so very proud of them BUT….what makes us even more proud is the unbelievable support we have received. The incredibly kind comments Mandy (our chief coach) and I received have honestly blown us away. Amazing comments about our incredible ponies, how amazing the girls were and how proud we should be of them. Thanks so SO much to those of you who reached out and were so kind….it means the world and cements that we are on the right track with what we are building here at LME. Also the HUGEST thanks to our amazing Pony Club parents who make all of this possible and a huge well done to all the other teams 🫶

We drove home feeling so incredibly lucky, grateful and inspired to keep doing what we do and really trying to soak in what a fab day it had been. We are so lucky to be able to do what we do 🫶🫶🫶

We have had SUCH a busy day today here at LME in the sunshine . So busy in-fact that the only photo I managed was one of Fishy helping me set a jumping exercise up in the arena early this morning. Swipe along to see how she spent the rest of the day 😂

We have had heaps of lessons today being taught by Sarah, Faith and myself (Rachel.) and some hacks enjoying the beautiful weather.

We also had the loveliest school visit
us for the morning with 15 primary age children who got to have a go at riding, grooming AND meet our farm animals.

We had a super busy ladies membership club riding lesson this evening with 8 ladies riding, plus we provide yummy tea and Prosecco for them….always a lovely evening.

We also had a special birthday party here this evening too.

Best day that ran like clockwork thanks to our dream team of yard staff and coaches. Now we are getting ready for a day of Faith coaching tomorrow plus some of our PC mounted games riders are heading to the Devon County Show. They are taking place in a games demo in the main ring….we can’t wait 😁 If anyone is visiting the show tomorrow we would LOVE the support. We are due to ride at 5pm 🥰

HUGEST thanks to everyone who made the effort to come to our Pony Club parents information evening on Friday. It was definitely the busiest one we have ever done and the loveliest.

Mandy (our chief coach) and I gave a talk trying to cover as much as we could about Pony Club and the opportunities it offers all children and young people up to the age of 25, but most importantly of all, we also had a handful of our LME Pony Club members doing a talk about their Pony Club experiences so far. It was so lovely to hear the words they had written and I was so impressed with how brave they all were to stand up and talk in front of a very busy room full of people! A few of these were so moving they actually reduced some of the audience to tears 🫶 Lyn our Pony Club parent liaison officer also gave a talk and I think her enthusiasm and dedication for everything LME Pony Club shone through and has definitely ignited a passion in some other parents too 🥰

The amazing Helen provided us all with the yummiest cakes which were so appreciated and hopefully the evening was informative and helpful for everyone who came along too 🙂 The feedback has been really great so thanks all 😘 We will do another one towards the end of this year.

SUPER EXCITED THAT LOTS OF YOU ARE JOINING US FOR THIS EVENT TOMORROW 🥰

On Friday we are holding a PONY CLUB PARENTS EVENING (children welcome too) at Lanhydrock Village Hall which is a 5 minute drive from LME. It starts at 6.30pm and there will be refreshments available.

The plan is to have an evening with all things Pony Club thrown in. Mandy and Rachel will be explaining everything Pony Club involves, there will be short presentations from some of our members of all ages to show what they love about PC. A chance to ask as many questions as you like and remember no question is a silly question. Fab social evening and a chance to really find out how PC can work for you 😊

PC is suitable for all from 2 years of age up to the age of 25. This is also fab for anyone who has not yet joined their child or themselves up to PC yet but is thinking about it. Come along and meet us, eat some yummy cake and find out all you need to know.

Please let us know if you are coming along so we have a rough idea on numbers.
