As of 2010, membership was increasing, with some 120 members, and other people coming for occasional lessons or an occasional ride.〔 The club has two tracks, a 40-meter and a 60-meter international standard. There are also different styles of show-jumps.〔(Under siege, one Gaza horse club remains ), Ayman Abu Shanab, Ma'an News Agency February 7, 2010〕 Horses are imported through the Gaza Strip smuggling tunnels.〔 According to the Australian newspaper The Age, the Club's restaurant is "The place to be seen for Gaza's teenage elite."〔(" Seaside in Gaza: the dress code's almost as dangerous as the surf ), July 31, 2010, The Age.〕 The Club serves non-alcoholic Bavarian beer to a wealthy, young, secular crowd, among whom "Headscarves are frowned upon."〔 According to The Guardian, the club, which was adjacent to the Crazy Water Park, is part of a recreational "circuit" for wealthy Gazans that includes seaside cafes and the Gaza Mall.〔("Gaza's elite enjoy riding at Faisal," ) Harriet Sherwood, September 6, 2010, The Guardian.〕 ==References==
