Plumpton rally 20th February cancelled

URGENT MESSAGE - the rally scheduled for 20th February at Plumpton has had to be cancelled as College had double booked the school for their own dressage competition that day ! Parking would have been difficult for us as well as trying to use the small school for the bigger horses jumping. There was also the safety issue about our ponies getting into the small school with all the larger horses coming and going into the other school at the same time. I am sorry about this. If you have already paid in advance for this rally please contact Mike if you need a refund. Thanks Jane Walsh

Southdown East Pony Club - Membership Renewal - First Notice

Hello

I hope you have all enjoyed a great festive season and are all tacked-up and ready to go for another year!

You are receiving this message because the e-mail address is associated with one or more members of the Pony Club whose membership needs to be renewed on 1 February if you wish to continue with us in 2016. Please find the form you will need to complete attached. If you do not respond by 28 February 2016 then your membership will lapse and you will no longer be covered by the Pony Club insurance policy.

If you do not intend renewing an e-mail to that effect will be greatly appreciated and will prevent follow up reminders.

You may print the form [please note I only need page 3], complete it, and either post it or scan and e-mail. It is also possible to fill the form in using Acrobat Reader and e-mail the pdf file to me saving paper, ink and postage.

If you can please complete the Gift Aid Declaration. If every member did that, the branch would be about £2,000 better off. A signature is required for this so if completing the form using Acrobat you will need to apply the image of your signature, a printed name is apparently not acceptable (not my rules!).

You may wish to make a bank transfer rather than send me a cheque in which case please note that our account is:

20-49-76 30810541

and please give your name as reference.

A form for booking places at our annual camps is being sent separately and you should receive it in the next few days.

Cakes needed for our January show please

Our 2 day show jumping show is fast approaching on the 16^th and 17^th January and now that Christmas is over, entries are coming in at a fair rate.

This 2 day show requires the help of many members and their families, and they all need to be kept fed and watered. Luckily our branch has many parents who are very good at cake making! Please could I ask for as many of you as possible to make a cake, cookies, flap jacks etc., with which to feed our helpers and also a plea for eggs as these are needed for breakfast for the early crew on both days.

If you are able to help with cakes or eggs, please bring to the show and hand in at the secretary's van where they will be gratefully received.

Many thanks and hope you all

We are asked to poo pick the school and place droppings into the skips provided in the corner of the arena.

Sarah Muggeridge will be instructing and any help with setting up jumps would be much appreciated.

Chelwood Equestrian can be found on the road between Nutley and Chelwood Gate, and the access is on a sharp bend, but is signposted. Follow the drive down to the 5 bar gate, and then continue past the buildings to the lorry park on the righthand side – there is lots of parking, and again the area to be cleared of hay and droppings. To access the indoor school, turn left out of the lorry park and then bear left up a short track that goes between the buildings to the school entrance.

Please shut all gates behind you. Horses are not to be left unattended tied to trailers/lorries.

There are toilets on site. There is also a kitchen area we can use, but you will need to bring your own tea, coffee, milk etc. – quite civilised!!

Update on hat standards and back protectors ruling for 2016

Dear Members and Parents  Headquarters have now made a decision with regard to hat standards.  As previously advised, the hat standard BS EN 1384 has been removed as an accepted hat standard from 1st January 2016.  The hat standards accepted as from 1st January 2016 are as follows:-    PAS 015: 1998 or 2011* with BSI Kitemark.  VG1 with BSI Kitemark.  Snell E2001* with the official Snell label and number.  ASTM-F1163 2004a with the SEI mark.  AS/NZS 3838 1998, 2003 or 2006  *The PAS 015: 1998 or 2011 and the Snell E2001 meet higher impact criteria and therefore give more protection.  We are now accepting the new red BE hat tags, so if Members have BE red tagged hats, they will not need tagging with a white Pony Club hat tag.  Please check your hats to make sure they comply with the accepted standards.    Body protectors used for cross country and pony racing must meet BETA 2009 Level 3 standard (purple label).    Many thanks.  Anne Cook
