Events and photos will be shown here after the events. We will try to leave the event reports and photos on until after the AGM each year.  

 Championship Points Reset!

 The Championship points are gained when you are placed in club competitions or you will get one point if you go to an Area Competition.   These include the Area Indoor Show Jumping, Fun Show, Area Indoor Dressage Show and the Spring Dressage, Area Horse Trials, Annual Show, LDR, Area Show Jumping, Area Hunter Trials.

Remember that there are trophies and awards to be won at the next AGM, based on the Club points’ system.

Members will receive one point for competing in an area competition, and points for being placed in any Club show or competition – 6 points for 1st place reducing to 1 point for 6th place. There are separate points’ systems for senior

and junior members, so start “collecting” them now!

Quiz Night – Tuesday 26 January 2010 at Seashells Lounge Bar & Restaurant

We hope that everyone that attended this popular event had a great evening.

Once again, Martin Foot had set us some very interesting questions which caused

head scratching and lots of discussion within the teams. The music round was

particularly challenging as we had to figure out something in the garden relating to clips of music played.

Well done all of you and our thanks to Martin and Joyce Foot for the excellent

Quiz once again, and to the helpful staff at the Seashells.

COME FOR A HACK

Whitefield Moor near Wilverley – Sunday 21 February 2010

See upcoming events for the next Hack.

Another Sunday morning that started grey, chilly and damp. It would have been so easy to turn over and go back to sleep – but we didn’t!

Five intrepid riders met at Whitefield Moor car park and set off for a leisurely group hack and chat. No pipe openers or trail blazing – just nice to be out. Yes, it did rain briefly but we all discussed the reasons why we hadn’t got fit horses and probably weren’t as fit as we ought to be at this

time of the year. Charlie was being a big, brave chap and wanted to be pathfinder. Becky’s new ride, Tom was an absolute sweetie. Lilly (Anne Pearce) and Serenade (Julie Marsden) were content to look serine and Leo (Rachel Lewis) happy to get on with the job.

Stories exchanged, venues for schooling discussed and plans made for the coming season, we arrived back at the car park with no damage done that 10 minutes with a bucket of hot water and a bar of saddle soap wouldn’t cure, but more importantly we were glad we’d made the effort.

Hope more of you will join us next month.
