Medieval Fun-Day 6th May 2007

We held a very successful Mediaeval Fun Day on the 6th May 2007, in aid of the North Tipperary Hospice Movement. Our young riders participated in 'The Fight Of The Earls', a medieval tournament directed by Sebastien Castillon of Association Animaferme in Normandy, France. Many thanks also to our local Senator, Noel Coonan, who was the only local politician to agree to go into our mediaeval stocks!

Our Mediaeval Fun Day was part of an initiative by the 'Riding In Tipperary' group of equestrian centres to raise funds for the Hospice and in total we raised over €2,000!
