Happy New Year!

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.

AGM tickets now on sale

The 2013/14 AGM and Presentation Evening will take place on Friday January 31st at Smallwood Primary School. Tickets will cost £8, to include supper and are available now from Alison Unwin or any committee member.

Rosette Recycling!

New for 2014 – Rosette Recycling!

We are going to introduce a new scheme in 2014 for all our regular competitions, whereby competitors who win a rosette and would like to recycle it can place it in a box on the day, to be re-used at the next competition. For every rosette recycled, 50p will be donated to the North West Air Ambulance. (We will review which charity we donate to each year).

Please note this will not apply to the Indoor Eventing as the rosettes there are unique to that competition.

New Pam Rigby Training Dates

Two further training dates with Pam Rigby – of New Barn Farm, Ollerton – have been arranged for January 23rd and February 27th. £18 each for a 1 hour session in a group of 3. Contact Jenny Benoy for further details.
