Enthusiasm not dampened at Limavady Show
As everyone is used to this summer, the rain came overnight and all morning until well into the afternoon last Saturday, July 20. This did not dampen the enthusiasm of the competitors at County Londonderry Agricultural (Limavady) Show and they turned up to exhibit and jump in the various classes on the day.
Another fantastic day of jumping at Ardnacashel
Sunday, July 21 saw another fantastic day for the Summer Show jumping League at Ardnacashel Equestrian, Comber. The weather was fairly kind, which is always a big bonus!
Competitors excel at Meadows Summer Series
The SJI Summer Series and Cash Back Unregistered jumping continued at the Meadows Equestrian Centre at the weekend.
Seskinore Harriers well-represented at Area Show jumping, Area Eventing and Area Tetrathlon!
Well done to all members taking part in the Pony Club Area 17 Show jumping at the Meadows on July 8.

Already the Laurel View Dressage League has passed the halfway mark, with the third competition of five taking place on Sunday, July 7. The next leg will be on August 4 and will be here before we know it - but before Summer runs away altogether, lets look back at the July result!
