Despite freezing weather all had a lovely ride around the estate and raised 100 euro for Monaghan Riding for Disabled Group & £50 for Armagh RDA group

Thanks to Kate & Anne from Caledon Estate who lead the way with historical commentary and Keith Willis who organised the event and provided hot soup and venison sausages afterwards!

At the leyland league 2009, a new trophy dedicated to the memory of Patrica Dinkin, past Monaghan branch D.C. and area 7 head

was won by a member of the Louth branch. It was presented by Elaine Lait D.C. of Louth branch and current area 7 head.

We had a busy July 09 with rallies held at Cloncaw Equestrian Center, Castle Leslie Estate,

  McArdles, Emyvale and regular games rallies at Hughes, Tyholland.

. Our four day Summer Camp was held at Cloncaw Equstrian Center, Glaslough with  five instructors,

  Louise, Jo, Geraldine, Orla and Rosemary. 

  Many committee members were  also busy organising our One Day Event (Horse Trial). 

  At 9.00 am on Sunday morning July 19th, 2009  five dressage arenas were in use around the

  Cloncaw farm, two show jumping areans had to be  kept on the go to finish up in time to begin

  the cross country section.  Where competitors obtain  a clear cross country and clear at showjumping,

  then all is down to their dressage score(lowest  result is best).

  Many thanks to our hard working committee who organised the many helpers. It was great to

  see so many none competing family members helping out on the day.  Our appreciation to

  everyone who helped us out on the day.

Monaghan County's most famous sportsman Tommy Bowe was also a member of our pony club branch a few years ago!

And represented our branch at national level.

He was a crucial member of the Ireland rugby team that won the 2009 Six Nations Championship and Grand Slam, the first for Ireland in 61 years.
