hi all..
Well just to let you all
know, the showground is holding it’s own…… NO boggy bits. Fingers crossed that we have good weather
till Sunday. Looks like, it’s going to
be busy, with the CHAPS qualifiers and the Regional championship qualifiers. We have had lots of enquiries… and lots of “new”
people asking about membership! That must be good for us! As a
club. We hope to see the old
& new members, attending on Sunday.
Our committee member that sorts the judges has again found us, panel
judges. So you won’t be disappointed. I will ask, if you
have any disagreement, with any official, you must talk to one of the committee
members, please don’t approach the judge, as this leaves a bad taste, in the judge’s
mouth. We like to ask them back! And they
are hard to find.
Hope to see you all one Sunday,
11th may 08. Please do a sun
dance for us! As it normally rains on us, at the first show
of the season. We need a change!
The catering hut will be
open from
just to remind all you old members… you have missed the deadline to
renew your membership, so this means the cost has gone up by £2 and will not
receive your points at the first show. New member’s
will still pay the “old” price and receive their points at the first point
show.

On another note, I have
heard from one of our old members, Mr. Dominic Elsworth. He is one of our top National hunt jockey’s
in the country. He had a fantastic,
Hi all
Well the AGM has been and
gone. Thank you to all the members who
attended. I am happy to report, that in
the first time in along time we made a profit.
A profit off £3,147! This will be spent
wisely.. i.e. New Show jumps
and a WALL! As well as having the showing rings made easier, although this will
be on going through out the year and into 2009.
if ANY MEMBER would like a full financial
report, please contact Rachel Smith, Club secretary who will send you a report.
Don’t forget we have
C.H.A.P.S qualifiers at the first point show.
C.H.A.P.S will have their, own ring, running all day. All C.H.A.P.S classes have being kindly
sponsored by
Hope to see you at the first
point show.

Quick update..
Well
looks like we might have the Equifest qualifiers…
which are a plus for the club. As we
are, the first in this area, to be awarded them. I do hope that you, as members will take the
opportunity, too take part.
As well as the Equifest. We have CHAPS qualifiers at the may Point
show. So all you coloured fans get
yourself into gear and get your tickets, first, at AVRC. Veteran qualifiers will be held once again at
the annual show. Remember “2007” our
“local” winner went on to
SHOWJUMPING: We are looking to send teams to the SJ champs
at the USOC.. Junior’s & senior …. If anybody is interested, then let me
know. All Horses/ponies must be able to
jump at least 3ft6” ponies and 4ft for horses.
The courses will not be that big but to stand a chance, we need no fear!
Hi
All
Well
we hope you have all had a good rest and are now getting back into the swing,
of getting your Horses/ponies fit for the coming season. The show dates are up on the front page, so
put them in your diaries. Members,
please remember you MUST pay your membership, before the 31st of
March. After that date, the fees will go
up and you will not qualify for your points at the first point show. Any new member’s will pay the higher fee but will
be eligible for their points.
We
are still registered for the qualifiers.. FOC.. Premier UK & USOC. We are also looking to get the qualifiers for
Equifest,
this is a new venture for 2008 and will be held at
The
Judge Co-ordinator has been working hard, to get different judges for us. So there will be new faces in 2008. Fingers crossed we have a judge coming up for
Nice
to see some members out and about riding, it’s the only contact some of us
have! As we all seem to get together during the season. It makes for a dull life in winter. Also please remember to wear your HI-Viz gear, so you can be seen. A lot of Jackets are dark in colour and it is
amazing how you blend into the background.
So a bit of Hi-viz is a bonus. PLEASE keep SAFE.
If
anybody has any news: new horses/ponies: Anything for sale, wanted, please let
me know and I shall post your news/things on here
Will
get the schedule up ASAP….. So you can all have a look… there have been some
minor changes. Nothing
to worry about.
As
soon as the Accounts have been done.. then the AGM will take place.. which
should be mid march.
Thanks
for taking time to read this.. and
looking forward to seeing you all at either the AGM or first point show.
Lyn. (Chairman)
N.B. Any member who has not re-newed their membership. Please can you do so ASAP. It will make things much easier for our membership Secretary, if you do it before the first show. She can then send you, your Membership Number, full schedule, Queue Jumping form and Discount Card.
