LOUTH'S FEATURE IN PRESS ARTICLES

The Louth Hunt Branch of the Irish Pony Club is featured in Ireland's Horse Review February edition, Volume 14 Issue 2 Page 16. The article tells a lovely story of what we are about and was written by one of our parents Orlaith Carmody Duffy.

There is also an article on the Irish Pony Club Hunting Exchange in this week's Horse and Hound 18th February 2010 Page 43. Louth's Marina was one of the four Irish participants.
