What an absolutely fantastic three days of learning we all just had. I have over 400 photos to work through and upload. Someone said to me I need to have a team of four ponies. I said I would need ten people to pull it off. It took nine people, a lot of jury -rigging and borrowing of leader bars (Thank you Jerome) to hook up my four ponies for a test run. Wow! That was so fun. More photos and videos to come tomorrow. Thank you to my amazing staff and Amy Aspin who helped organise, set-up, problem-solve and keep the clinic running smoothly. Thank you to all of the incredibly talented drivers that attended. We all learnt a lot watching. Thank you to all the auditors who came, asked thought provoking questions and provided a supportive audience! Thank you to Mackenzie Jay for her very informative talk on saddle fitting. And, most of all, thank you to Bram Chardon for making each and everyone of us better. We all hope you will come back next year. Pictures and video coming over the next few days.
