It varies from branch to branch so you need to contact the camp secretary. Sorry.

Been a while since I went but really nothing more than you would for a normal PC rally. You will need X-c stuff, showing jacket, Light coloured jods for everyday wear, so maybe a three pairs (??), PC jumper, shirts for everyday, PC tie, jod boots, jod clips, casual stuff for mucking out and evening clothes.
Horse- Grooming kit, boots, tack, everything must be named tagged
That is it really i think. Ring your DC and get a list that is bad to have not sent one! You can imagine the trouble you'll be in if you forget something!!! Get on to them! Have loadsa fun x x x

If it's residential you will need feed and buckets, hay/haylage and nets, mucking out kit, grooming kit, bedding for horse, appropriate tack and cleaning kit, rugs if necessary, bedding for you, lots of riding gear, formal riding gear, snacks, torch, casual gear for evenings.

It's been a while since I went but you will have to be organised. Although it does vary from branch to branch, e.g. some may supply their own hay.

You will need everything for your horse, as if you are on DIY (so wheelbarrow, fork etc, water buckets, feed buckets, feed, hay, etc), grooming kit, tack, boots etc, whatever you normally use.

And then all stuff for you and remember to bring lots of shirts!

What really used to annoy me at camp was the number of ponies that were not fit enough for camp. I think people really underestimate how much work is done on camps and it saddened me to see so many ponies struggling.

Please make sure your horse/pony is up to camp before you go.

Can I emphasise what the poster above says about shoeing! Please make sure you book your pony/horse in for shoeing well in advance of camp and don't expect to ring your farrier two days before and for him to fit you in!
