Horse talk



A reminder this week for Pony Club members, the six month membership designed to change our timing back to the financial year has now ended.

You are not insured to compete or attend any rallies until your 12 month 2025-2026 membership has been paid.

Like everything, fees have increased quite sharply for the insurance side of things, I hope clubs are being supportive and helpful to any finding it hard, and registering your club with the Victorian Government to be a provider for the “Get Active” sporting grant means eligible members can apply for $200 per family back.

Just released is the full program for Wesburn Park’s weekend of showjumping, with pony club running a freshmans on Saturday 23 August with entries on the day starting at 30centimetres.

Following that up is the adult riders showjumping day Sunday 24 August, entries are open at event sec.

Camping available for those doing both days, looking forward to a fun weekend.

Happy riding everyone.
