There is Pre Season Eventers Dressage on February 19th and Show Jumping on February 26th, both at Somerford Park Farm.

Vyrnwy Valley Riding Club and Tanatside Pony Club are running an ODE at Berriewood in June.

Our social evening on Thursday February 20^th will consist of a fascinating talk by Sue Steer, who with Ann Builder and their stalwart steeds followed in the hoofprints of William Cobbett (albeit rather faint ones, 185 years on…) – and the talk will be followed by hearty soup and tasty cake and splendid socialising. Tickets are available from Libby or Juliet. More details available on the event page.

The agenda for the AGM, to be held on 31st January at Smallwood Primary School, is available here.

The AGM will be followed by the Annual Presentation and supper. Bring your own drinks and glasses.

Happy New Year to all our members and friends!

We hope you have a great year competing with the club in 2014. We are changing from the usual winter and summer points systems to having an annual points system – running from January to December. The Points table for 2014 can be found under the Results section, along with tables from previous years.

Another new addition for 2014 will be a move to pre-payment for dressage entries and training. Entries will not be accepted without payment and options to pay will include cheque by post or PayPal. The dressage on Sunday 2nd February will run as previous with payment accepted on the day but subsequent competitions will have to paid for in advance.
