SUN AND FUN AT RDA REGIONAL EVENT

The South East Region of RDA gathered on 7th May 2008 for their annual Fun Day, held this year at Felbridge Showground, when riders from RDA Groups from Kent, Surrey & Sussex got together to show what they could do.

It was a wonderful opportunity for riders of all ages to either compete to qualify for the RDA's National Championships, which are held in Gloucestershire in July, or just to come and enjoy a good day out with their four-legged friends and of course, the wonderful team of volunteers who came with them. With the option of participating in handy pony competitions, clear-round jumping, gymkhana games or fancy dress, there was something for all abilities.

We were extremely lucky this year to have such wonderful weather, and everyone I think appreciated the presence of the ice-cream van! A day full of smiles and rosettes we think goes a long way to help our riders' with their confidence and social skills, as well as just having a jolly good time.

We are delighted to have the continued support of our sponsors, Cowan Architects , from East Grinstead and David Cowan kindly came along to carry out the onerous task of judging the fancy dress but also award all the rosettes.
