A big congratulations to Upper Yarra Pony Club Riders Without Horses (RWH) member Issy, who won a national competition run by Pont Club Australia, describing why horses should be given a second chance, Well done Issy.
Biggest news at the moment is the proposal for a national park in our area to be shut up and off limits to everyone for their recreational pursuits.
I would encourage everyone to contact your MP’s and anyone else you can think of.
In such a large equestrian area, we need to be able to ride and enjoy our bushland.
We have so few safe places to ride left, this would be a very large problem on so many levels.
The Brumby Festival returns for 2024 date is confirmed, Sunday 6 October so pop that in your diary.
Don’t forget entries are now open for Upper Yarra Adult Riders Combined Training Day on the 14 April, keep your eye on Event Secretary for that and
other upcoming events.
Happy Riding everyone!!
