Stories

As an equestrian, this was a great event. Sir Rapheal and Maitress Anne-Marie went out of their way to create a fun weekend for horse people. There was a long and fun Challenge Course, dancing with your horse, cavalry drills, a musical carousel contest, a processional led by Queen Angharad, and a Cavalry charge across the field on Sunday morning.
