horse A Host of Fun for all the Family

ILPH Summer Show, Hall Farm, Snetterton, Norfolk, Saturday 23 June

The Good News is that the ILPH Summer Show 2001 isn’t a casualty of foot and mouth disease and is still going ahead with free entry to the showground this year and the possibility of winning £3,000 !

One of the principle attractions in the main arena will be the daring stunt riding team, the 'Horsemen of the Apocalypse' - who have featured in numerous television programmes and films, including 'Sharpe', Sleepy Hollow', 'Merlin' and 'Jason and the Argonauts' to name but a few.
