Congratulations Gaeltachts – what an achievement
With the Relay For Life attracting our attention and some of our usual suspects keeping a low profile in 2012, our club sat out the western region’s Team Show Jumping Qualifier which took place on Sunday in Knock.

Magical Carrickfinn worth the two-year wait
The weather came good when we needed it this year and 10 members enjoyed a memorable camping trip in magical Carrickfinn. Most of them are still nursing sore ribs, injured from excessive laughter on a long and lingering Saturday night by a mighty campfire. Spectacular surroundings, great weather, wonderful riding, good eating and priceless company.Continue reading “Magical Carrickfinn worth the two-year wait”
Lessons at Glenleary a great success
Despite the questionable weather outlook, Friday night’s lessons at Glenleary were a great success and everybody benefitted from Mary Finneran’s tuition. Two groups rode, both of them choosing jumping over flatwork, with Sally venturing happily over coloured poles for the first time in her riding club life. Many thanks to Mary for the usual expertContinue reading “Lessons at Glenleary a great success”
