Residential & Non-Residential Camps 2011
Last updated 22nd May 2011

On the advice of the UK Pony Club the locations of the camps have been deleted as a security measure.
Both locations are secure, and plenty of well-armed (pitchforks!) adults will be available at all times.
Anyway, if you know anything about Pony Club children you would realise that invading St. Trinians would be much safer!

Dates for Camp 2011

Residential/Non-Residential Camp will be Sat 30th July - Wed 4th August

If you want to attend camp contact Henrietta Hare or Mary Baillie.
Application forms need to be returned by 31st May with a £50 deposit to secure a place
