THE Irish Pony Society held their annual awards celebration last Saturday at Barberstown Castle, Straffan. With a full showing season for the first time since 2019 due to Covid-19, there were an impressive 170 attendees to celebrate the achievements of members for the 2022 season, writes Michele Craik-White.

Members from the nine IPS regions, Cork, Kildare/North Leinster, Limerick/Clare, Northern, South Leinster/Waterford, Tipperary, Wicklow, Western and North-Western Areas had made the journey and thoroughly enjoyed the electric party atmosphere.
