Dear all,

Children on lead reins welcome.
Thanks
Dan
Dear All
Due to the bad weather we are expecting tomorrow and the high risk that we could lose power again we have made the decision to postpone Friday's eventing rally until February half term.
I will send out exact details in the near future.
Thanks
Hazel
I have decided this year not to post a card to each member but to make a donation to the Sussex Horse Rescue Trust in Uckfield who I feel are more deserving beneficiaries than the card manufacturers and Post Office.
Dr Ripley, our Hon. Membership Secretary, and I propose e-mailing out the Membership Renewal Forms on or about 1st January.
May I take this opportunity of wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and I look forward to seeing many of you at Ardingly in January!
Mike

We have been lucky enough to find a space at Felbridge this Saturday morning, 21st December, to hold a jumping practice for those who have put their name forward for small novice and novice team selection at our own show in January being held at Ardingly.
It is rather late notice, but venues are busy and we were fortunate to get this slot.
If you are interested please could you e-mail me your name and name of horse etc. by return - we are limited to 12 places, so will have to be on a "first come" basis.
The practice will cost £7.50 (cash or cheques made to SDHE) and the hire of the arena is £10.00 each (this must be paid in cash on the day)
Candy Robbins

Let me know if you wish to be considered and if we have enough interest we will enter a team or three.

Dear All
The West Sussex BHS Bridleways Officer, Tricia Butcher alerts riders to an online survey by the South Downs National Park Authority. She suggests that as many riders should complete it as possible.
I have completed the survey and it only takes a few minutes; they are simple questions (tick boxes) but there are opportunities to respond in an 'equestrian' way if one is clever in using the boxes marked 'other' and the question 'what advice would you give a visiting friend' !!!!
The SDNPA say that the survey is intended "to gather the thoughts and ideas of as many people as possible. The questions and format for responses are designed to give us the information we need to understand what people think and feel about the South Downs National Park".
The survey is at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SDNPsharedidentity_public . Please feel free to forward on or distribute this survey widely to others.
The closing date for responses is Monday 16th December.
Help to make sure that they don't forget that we ride in the South Downs NP
Thanks and apologies to those who will have already had this info from other sources.

I would just like to thank everyone who supported the dressage on Sunday. It was a lovely day and so nice to see so many Pony Club members. A special thanks to the Reffins who provided non-alcoholic mulled wine and mince pies which went down a treat.
We will definitely hold another competition next year.
Many thanks
Anne Cook
