Eventing Clinic with David Wilding-Davies

Date: Saturday & Sunday, August 28/29

We are thrilled to have David back at LETC! Although now an African coffee farmer, David is a world-class equestrian with extensive international Eventing experience and he’s is a very popular clinician when he returns to Canada from Zimbabwe every summer. He will be at LETC the weekend of Aug 28/29 to provide London and area riders with Eventing instruction.

Bio highlights:

· Level 3 coach

· Placed 3rd at Rolex in 1986 and 7th in 1988

· 1988 Olympic and 1990 World Championship member of the Canadian 3DE Equestrian Team

· Rated 20th in the world in 1989 and 16th in 1990

The clinic will run over two days with 4 groups riding for 1.5-2hrs per session, one session per day with a focus on pace, control, technique, confidence and of course, having fun. Groups will consist of 4-6 riders & will be grouped by ability. There will be a meet ‘n greet for all riders Friday evening at 7pm.

And who knows … maybe we can convince David to teach us how to play polo-cross ...

LETC Summer Day Camps

In an effort to increase children’s general appreciation for horses and to increase the skills of our riders and horses, we are pleased to offer a variety of summer day camps.

These are horsemanship camps aimed at educating students in all-round equine knowledge including daily riding lessons, education in stable management, and lots of fun activities. A Camp Session runs for five days, Monday to Friday, 9:00am—4:30pm. Riding helmets and proper boots must be worn when riding (we can provide a helmet for those who need it), and campers need to bring a lunch, snacks and plenty of water.

· Riding Lessons—each day campers will have a one-hour group lesson, maximum four per group

· Stable Management—campers will be taught proper grooming, care of tack, parts of the horse, longing, feeding, and safe handling of horses. These classes will give campers a practical knowledge of caring for a horse through “hands on” practice.

· Other Camp Activities—all campers participate in activities such as arts & crafts, trail rides, games, first aid, trailering preparation, walking a cross-country course, etc.
