Summer Training
Summer training is usually of three weeks' duration, and takes place
at Bodney Camp, in Norfolk, as the camp is fully equipped with
temporary stabling for the horses, and is in the heart
of the Norfolk countryside.
The main purpose is for the men to undergo vital training
as a regiment without the distraction of Public Duties
(an absolute minimum staff remains at Hyde Park Barracks during
this period, to enable as many as possible to attend annual training).
The facilities at Bodney Camp allow for much variation in
riding experiences - such as cross country, racing, and competitive sports -
as well as allowing for the completion of Individual Training Directive (ITD) training
such as Basic Fitness Test (BFT), Combat Fitness Test (CFT), etc.,
and to provide a little "Green Army" training. - and yet they still find the wherewithal to hold an Open Day for the general public.
For the Open Day, the Regiment displays its equestrian skills,
entertainment is provided by one of the regimental bands, there is
usually a performance of the Musical Ride, and - at the end of the day -
they invariably raise a lot of money for charities.
