Thank you to everyone who came along to the Upper Yarra Pony Club’s Australia Day Freshmans on Friday, a little persistent drizzle, but cleared to a nice day.

The UYPC’s next freshman is scheduled for Cup Day in November, but the club will try and find some free Saturdays on the Calander throughout the year.

Tanya French from Holistic Horse Education is holding a trimming workshop on 25 February at Wesburn Park, please contact Tanya if you wish to attend or require further information.

Another reminder that with the amount of rain and humidity this summer has brought, we are still getting growth of grass more like spring, so please be aware of the richness in pasture currently, and keep an eye on those prone to sugar/feed-related issues. It just hasn’t dried out yet at all, with new growth continuing to shoot up everywhere.
