About us
Back in the early 70’s when some
of us remember power cuts and the three day
week, a group of like-minded people met in the
Lounge of the Chase Inn near Hartshill with a
view to starting a local show.
The founder members had a
location and some equipment. What they didn’t
have they worked hard to get with sponsorship
mainly from the parents of pony-mad children.
More than 35 years later the club
is still going strong, albeit at a new location
and with a different committee but the ethic
remains the same – the club is run for its
members and prides itself on its family friendly
atmosphere with all ages and abilities catered
for.
There are the “usual” showjumping
and showing classes, mini jumping (from a couple
of inches high if you wish), barrel jumping
(great fun), handy pony, working hunter,
dressage and, one of our favourites, the
gymkhana. Visiting judges have been impressed
with the friendly atmosphere and, of course, the
standards.
Everyone works hard to ensure
that members are given help, advice and
encouragement and our members all help and
support one another.
From toddlers to grannies, we
welcome you all!
