Welcome....

 

to the website of North Lammermuir Riding Club.  We are a friendly club based in East Lothian, with currently around 45 members.  We have a great venue for our events at Hodges Farm, Pencaitland, and hold monthly competitions through the summer and training sessions all year round.  Our members range from non-riders through novices to more experienced riders, and we are happy to ensure that any nervous/inexperienced combinations enjoy themselves!  Our categories of membership are full, family and non-riding; we are always looking for new members to come along and either compete or assist at events so please download a membership form (see membership page) and join us!

NLRC Events/ScotNorth ex-Racers Club

If you are a registered member of ScotNorth ex-racers, from now on you'll be eligible for members' entry fees to our shows and training sessions.  We'll be running "classes within classes" at our shows; just supply your ScotNorth registration number on the entry forms and you'll qualify for ex-racer rosettes as well as those for the overall class.  And similarly for our various training sessions; just let us know you're in ScotNorth and you'll be most welcome at the discounted rates.

New Rules for Flu Vaccinations

Are you aware that new rules for equine flu vaccinations came into force on 1 January 2011?  These have arisen as a result of a consultation between BRC and the Animal Health Trust. 

For further details and a Flu Vaccination Checker, see our News Page.

Riding Club Teams

Are you interested in being on a team for North Lammermuir Riding Club; either dressage or show jumping?  We are looking into putting teams forward for the qualifiers leading up to the Riding Club Championships in September so let us know if you'd like to be considered.  Please feel free to have a go - all are welcome and there is no selection process.  This is also a good way of meeting other members and having some fun in the process!

The latest Area 1 Riding Club newsletter is available on the News page.
