First Welsh Festival of the Horse
16th and 17th April 2006

Carreg Dressage put up a Lusitano display at the "Festival of the Horse".

About the festival: This was the first Welsh Festival of the Horse, staged in the surrounds of the Margam Park Estate. It was a two-day event organised and promoted by the Welsh Equine Council. There were three activity rings, an undercover arena, a craft fair and two equestrian trade-stand villages. A great family day out to enjoy the world of equestrian activities and some truly spectacular professional performances!

Click here to visit the Welsh Festival of the Horse Website.

At the festival: The magnificent setting of Margam Park enhanced our display,the event was very well organised and very well attended. Adrienne Howes and her team had done a great job of putting together a very innovative and entertaining programme of equine displays really demonstrating the diversity that horses are capable of.

We were very grateful to Ken Barnsley and Laura Duncalf and their Lusitano stallions Malfadado and Orador for travelling from near Manchester in order to promote the Lusitano breed. The horses all looked wonderfull and hopefully gave a good impression of what fantastic horses Lusitanos are to ride and to own.

Dancing with Horses
	Jane Lloyd Francis and Georges Dewez performed at the "Dancing with Horses" show on the 1st of April 2006 to help raise funds for the new Riding for the Disabled complex.
