After what can best be described as a difficult year I would like to thank Lisa for all her hard work behind the scenes to try and bring as many events as possible to our members. A well deserved rest is in order. Also, huge thanks must go to the discipline heads, instructors and committee members as without their dedication and perseverance, training, rallies, tests, camps and competitions would have not been possible. We are not out of the woods yet but I am confident that together we will continue to demonstrate resilience and resourcefulness. We are exploring options for a safe return to face-to-face activities, updates will be posted on ESPC’s website and our members Facebook page when available.

I’m excited by my new role and look forward to meeting everyone in the coming months. I already have many fond memories being involved in Pony Club activities and I know there are many more to come. For me Pony Club is not just about the riding but the life-long friendships that come from participating in all things horsey. This is not only true for the children but the parents and helpers that all come together to make Pony Club the fantastic organisation that we are.

Here’s to a happier New Year!

Best wishes
