Well Done to our Longford Pony Club members for trying so hard today at the East Gippsland Zone of Pony Clubs games day at Bairnsdale Pony Club. Getting through fears, naughty ponies and supercharged ones, and to one competing in her first ever event. Each and every one of the kids showed just how much they have learnt and to be there to support and encourage each other. Ribbons don't mean they did not win, they won because they have each other.

Soo today our members
Liv, Ruby, Ella, Summah and Ivy competed at the Toongabbie Winter Woolies competition and they all did amazing. Soo proud of these kids. Learning each and every time. And even when things are soo scary the kids find ways to overcome that. Also the dedication of the parents and also to our non horsey mums and dads who even though they don’t think they do soo well when times get tough, they are learning each and every time. Very proud of you guys.

Another day done by LTM contacting. Leo and Talia you guys are amazing thank you so much. They even slashed the grounds for us also.

How awesome is this!!! Works have started on our fencing. This would not be possible without the hard work of some members in the adult riders club obtaining a grant, which has helped with the costs of the materials. Thanks to Gippsland Critical minerals.
And also a huge thanks to Talia and Leo MacDonald from LTM contracting for donating their time machinery and some costs to the materials. We can’t wait to see it an finished.

Pony Club Rally July 2023
We were lucky enough to have Renae Cooke come and give the kids a flat lesson and to learn about what to expect at shows/gymkhana's and how clean EVERTHING must be in a best presented class. We then headed off down the road and had a play on the obstacles at Talia and Leo MacDonalds property. Then it was back to the grounds and everyone had a great round of Cross Country. Thanks to Fiona for a great lunch. Next Rally in August will be a two-day overnight stay incorporating D and D* Certificates as well as a working bee.

Zone Mounted Games at Bairndale.
Sarah, Chloe, Maddy, Ruby, Ella, Summah and Layla all competed in a Longford team, with Vinnie competing in a composite team.
All kids did so well, since it was a last minute decision by us adults for them to compete.
Only just missed out on going to state level coming in 4th/8 teams, but are on the waiting list if anyone pulls out.
