Just a few days until your membership needs to be renewed (January 1st) so you can enjoy all the fun in store for next year!
In the next few hours you will receive notification of our annual dinner after which we have the annual general meeting, including election of committee, followed by the presentation of trophies for everything from enthusiasm to achievement, both ridden and non-ridden. As ever, the cost of the dinner is subsidised for members out of fundraising - just non-members have to pay in full. And those not wishing to eat but to come just for the AGM pay nothing, of course. Last year's raffle raised £1,000 for air ambulance. Even if you're not coming, you can get someone to buy raffle tickets for you. There are fabulous prizes up for grabs. Booking your place couldn't be simpler this year - just look for it under social events and click away!
From all your committee, have a wonderful New Year

The 90cm team finished 18th with Chris Rose finishing 5th in his arena. Kelly Blumberg was also 5th in her arena as an individual in the 80cm. Our junior team had a tough task with only a team of three but they all gained valuable championship experience and did the club proud.
