A total of 23 riders, ranging from four years old to 15, participated in the camp, with visitors from across zone eight including Bingara, Warialda and North Star.

The camp was held in Ashley, with the club recently changing locations earlier this year with the help of funding from the state government.

A regional zone jumping school was held on Saturday, July 11 to Sunday, July 12, before the camp began the following Tuesday, with three days of instruction and then culminating with a day of competition on Friday.

Moree Pony Club chief instructor Val Squires said it was a great week of riding.

"We did dressage, jumping, cross country and we got to use our new cross country vests which was a part of our grant money from Adam Marshall which was really good," she said.

"We did sporting, time trials, then we had the competition on the last day which was hacking and sporting and all the kids had a great day."

There were some COVID-19 restrictions in place to help the camp run smoothly, including constant hand washing and sanitising, as well as some changes to how the canteen ran.

"There was a lot of things that we had to change but otherwise that was pretty much all we had to deal with," Mrs Squires said.

The club wanted to thank Johnstone Concrete and Quarries for the sand and Muggleton Cranes for helping to make the move to the new camp.

"It was the first time the kids have had a full camp here...with all our equipment out here," Mrs Squires said.

"It was the first event the children have attended since lockdown so they were very excited to see each other again, riding together again so it was great."
