02-04-13 Spring Show Jumping League – 27.3.13
Short set of results for the 27th of March, as because of the heavy snowfall the previous weekend and continuing low temperatures, the drifts of snow on the road sides had unfortunately not dispersed, meaning that we decided it would be foolish to encourage trailer drivers to try and reach us as there were no […]

02-04-13 Spring Show Jumping League – 20.3.13
Looking back now it seems this may well have been the calm before the storm. Less than 24 hours later the roller door on the smaller indoor arena was “slightly” rearranged as it was buffeted with the wind that preceded the snow storms that were still to come. 🙁 But on the 20th March jumping […]

02-04-13 Spring Show Jumping League – 13.3.13
Second night of the Spring Show Jumping League and another good turnout of competitors, enthusiastic about taking advantage of the indoor riding space afforded in Laurel View’s two indoor arenas.

02-04-13 Spring Show Jumping League – 6.3.13
Perhaps in hindsight Spring isn’t the best title for this league, but maybe now it is showing signs of peeping through from under the snow!! The league continues weekly on Wednesday evenings, starting with the 40cm at 6pm, before proceeding from 60cm to a metre. First back to the start of the league for the […]

31-03-13 Working Hunter League Final
Hopefully the snow has done its worst and will soon depart to allow normality or something close to it resume! The newly rescheduled final date for the Working Hunter league has indeed rattled round quickly, hope we see plenty of folk here to vie for the titles and prizes. We had thought about judging […]

28-03-13 Cross Country Go As You Please – cancelled!
Unfortunately the persistent precipitation following the snow last month has left the ground entirely unsuitable for a Go As You Please this weekend, we had really been hoping for a run of good drying weather, but what we have had and what is forecast fall far short of what we had hoped for. So we […]

If you see this message please send an email to laurelview01@btinternet.com to let us know whether you […]
