The event started on Monday and finished on Wednesday in what were beautiful conditions.

The camp was the brainchild of club secretary Liz Tritchler and saw a range of coaches and instructors visit Murrumbateman to take budding riders through their paces. The instructors taught club riders about showjumping, cross country, dressage and even archery and sports psychology.

"Liz took this from just an idea six months ago to an extremely successful reality this year," Club President Mark Livermore said.

"The club is 35-years-old and we haven't ever done something like this, but it's gone so well that we think this might become an annual event."

He said the event had something for everyone, which was essential because participants ranged from the age of three to 25.

"We have 141 members all up so the fact that we've catered to so many riders and it's all gone off without a hitch, is something the organisers can be proud of."

Livermore thanked a range of sponsors including Shaw Vineyards and Murrumbateman Rural Supplies.

"It's been really good working with community groups but a special mention has to go to the Murrumbateman Field Days committee.

"Those guys usually have the grounds closed leading into the Field Days so the fact that they have let us in and let us use the grounds is really good of them"
