The East Anglian Parelli Instructors teamed together to hold a Savvy Camp for lots of enthusiastic students culminating in a Charity Parelli Games Competition which raised more than £1,100 for charity.
The team of Parelli Instructors were; Cath Langley, Jennifer Woods and Anthony Greenleaves and they split the students into three groups, focusing on different savvies.
Anthony helped each group on-line and prepared them for the savvies of liberty and freestyle led by Cath and Jen respectively.
Everyone had a great time soaking up the savvy in the sunshine at the wonderful facility of Riddlesworth Equestrian Centre and the Saturday teaching day was topped off with a yard BBQ including bouncy castle and sumo wrestling suits!
Thankfully nobody was hurt during the extra-curricular activities and Sunday was the time to put their new found savvy into practice in the fun Parelli Games and Spotlights Event.
All proceeds from the Sunday went to charity and with the entry fees, a raffle and home baked cake sales, the total donated to charity was £1,108.
This was split between the local RDA group Buckenham House and the Parelli Education Institute which supports Welfare Organisations, Therapeutic Horsemanship and organisations dedicated to Youth horsemanship.
Said Cath Langley: “It was a fantastic team effort with lots of enthusiastic volunteers offering their services. The highlight of the weekend was the smiling faces throughout and the amazing horse/human relationships on display in the Spotlights and of course the request to do it all again next year.”
