World Equestrian Games
ILPH Islay and Liz Mackay made their competitive debut at the World Equestrian Games in Normandy. Two vaulters from Canada, Jeanine and Angelique van der Sluijs, competed in the pas de deux class. Jeanine also competed with ILPH Islay in the individual class. ILPH Islay performed perfectly. Liz was ably assisted by groom Helen Rogerson from SBV and spare Charlie Turner.

Summer Camp
In August we had our annual three-day vaulting camp, which many of our vaulters attended, included guest vaulter Maaike Zelvelder from the Netherlands. Two days of which were centred around sessions with our guest coach Lucy Philips.
Perth Show Demo
ILPH Islay was invited by World Horse Welfare to do a display at Perth Show along side other WHW horses. The vaulting demo went well even though Ali thought he was there to do some showjumping! A big thanks to Yazminn Williamson, Molly Turner and Atholl Pettinger for taking part in the display.

Glenfarg Fete Demo
We attended Glenfarg Fete with two horses and with our tombola stall. The weather held until we started our display, at which point the heavens opened. Undaunted the lungers, vaulters and horses managed to show some vaulting skills in walk even though they were very cold and wet.
