We are sorry to announce that the 2 Day Driving Event at Easter Hall Park will be postponed due to the weather conditions, however we are re-scheduling the event for the 20th & 21st of September 2008.
We would like to thank all the people who have supported us on this event and all those who have entered and we hope you will still be able to join us in the September event.
Weather permitting, we shall run the full event however if it has not dried out then we shall just run the Dressage, Cones and the BBQ & Disco on the Saturday. If things are looking pretty good then we will hope to run Dressage, Cones BBQ & Disco and maybe a few obstacles but missing out the section A.
Please feel free to call us for more information on what the weather is doing and what sections will be held from Wednesday 17th September.
We would be grateful if all entries could be in by Saturday 6th September.
Thank you all again for your support!
