Halloween Party

Every the year there is a Halloween Party held at Talygarn in the indoor school. This year there will be a bouncey Castle, Bouncey slide, Rodeo Bull, Ducking Apple, Sumo Wrestling and and DJ. Older members of the Pony Club Centre form a committee to raise money to hold the event. This event is non profit making and the funds raised are used to pay for the hire of the equipment, to give to charity and a small amount from ticket sales rolled over to next year to give them a start. I think it is a challenge for them to have to organise an event and raise the money to fund it. The Committee this year consists of Amelia Martha Chloe Carys Jodie Sarah Hannah Emily Jess Alex. They are aged between 11 and 16 years. They usually start their fund raising at the end of August by holding a show jumping show for the clients of the riding school, which means they have to organise the classes, someone has to take entries, two have to judge, whilst the rest have to organise the ponies pick up fences and generally run everything to do with the event. They raised £250 on the Show Jumping and they also made and sold cakes on the day which raised another £39. During October they took children out on ponies for half hour hacks which brought in £170 and today they organised a sponsored walk and made approx £125 They have to raise approx £650 to pay for the hire of the equipment and they hope to raise a further £100 to give to charity. Tickets are £1 plus bring a plate of food, there is drink available. It is a great fun night for all the family and everyone is welcome. Last year we had some great fancy dress outfits. All the committe have worked very hard to organise this event so please support it they need to sell enough tickets to reach their target. Some of the Committee last year >>>>>>>>>>>>>
