____________________________________________________________________________________________ Introducing Endurance Riding to Albrighton Hunt Pony Club Members By Diane Latham Heart of England Endurance visited Robaston College on 29th July, 2009 to meet the children of the Albrighton Hunt Pony Club during Mini Camp. Jodie Watts is one of their members and she and Mum, Helen liaised with Robert Lawrence, the PC camp co-ordinator to make the afternoon happen. Jodie brought Gilly along and Christine Liggins very kindly agreed to join us and put together a very informative and helpful talk and demonstration. There were about 20 children ranging from 7-12 years and several adults, none of whom knew anything about endurance. We generated a lot of interest and the children particularly enjoyed listening to Gilly’s heart through the stethoscope and were intrigued with her tack.

Gilly was a star throughout and didn’t put a hoof wrong. The weather was not particularly kind but the only outdoor activity was the short ride we had organised (complete with orange tape) round the grounds of the College. As the rain battered the roof of the indoor school, Robert asked who wanted to do the ride. Most hands shot up and they were all then instructed to tack up their ponies and assemble in the smaller schooling area in 5 minutes. Jodie and Louise accompanied the children on the ride mounted, with adults walking with them on the ground. There were smiles all round upon their return, when they were all presented with a rosette. We are hoping to put on a ride locally so that they can get a taste of endurance and this will possibly be at Cosford (but not at the same time as the EGB ride in September). We will run a PC ride, all branches welcome, which will be vetted, alongside a pleasure/training ride which will not be vetted. Everyone is welcome. We will put more information on the web site when organised.

____________________________________________________________________________________________ Prize Giving Evening Saturday 10th January 2009 By Jane Sparrey
Marion (Treasurer) got up to speak about the poor
state of the Heart of England Group’s finances, only to be reassured by
Di Latham, that she had bought along Money for the Kitty – proceeds of
the Mince Pie Ride, and by me, that I had over the last few days banked
lots for the Meal tickets. We later announced another £129 had been
garnered from the evenings’ Raffle and Bonus Ball Prize Pot (Camilla won
the £10, what a great, on the spot competition, that proved to be.) Control was established, however, and we were all
very pleased with our food. The timing was very good, we were not
hurried through the courses, and the general scene was very enjoyable to
be part of , a happy, noisy, chatty background prevailed all evening.

On
Saturday 10th January we held the Annual Meeting and Prize Giving, this
year at a new to us venue, Whartons Park Golf Club, near Bewdley. Thirty
Nine of us sat down for the meal and a few extras attended just for the
meeting and Prize giving.
Back
to the meeting , and Lisa had lots of lively information about the new
Website. Very active discussion followed with people firing questions at
Lisa, and Lisa suddenly remembering something else, and later in the
evening the Golf Club allowed access to their computer for Lisa to
demonstrate the new site at first hand – well, that golf club office has
never been so crowded!
So
by about 8.30 the business done, we had time for a chat, in fact we were
all milling about and the Golf Club Staff were despairing of us ever
sitting down for our meal.
