SDHE next fund raising event is our annual Branch Show at Plumpton Racecourse on Sunday 8th July
We are looking for help with setting up for this show on Saturday 7th July, 1.00 at the racecourse - there are 4 courses of jumps to be built, rings to be roped and a handy pony course to be created. Please could as many of you as possible come to help even for an hour, many hands make light work and will be very much appreciated, especially some strong men wanting to flex their muscles!
We are looking for help on the day with arena party and runners. As much help at the end of the day in dismantling the rings, taking down jumps and loading of trailers would be most welcome too.
Hope to see lots of our members taking part.
Many thanks
Candy Robbins

I would like to thank everyone who helped at the event on Sunday at Wivelsden. It was a good day and I hope everyone enjoyed themselves. There is just one point I would like to bring up. If anyone has a problem or question after an event, please could you either ring or email the show secretary or myself rather than put it on Facebook. Problems put on Facebook seem to escalate with everyone else chipping in with what they think sometimes getting it completely wrong. We do want to know about any problems but these need to be dealt with in the appropriate manner. Thank you. Anne Sent from my iPhone

Please could you arrive in plenty of time for your allocated slot and be mounted ready to rock 'n roll!
All horses and riders are to be immaculate in their turn out – clean ponies and clean plain tack (no bling!) Riders to wear pony club sweatshirt and tie, white shirt, beige jodphurs, boots and chaps, gloves and hairnets for the girls. If your hat is not tagged, I can do it for you on the day.
Please do not leave ponies unattended tied up to boxes, and please clear up ALL droppings and any spilt hay.
This rally is not just a lesson, but also an assessment to see what standard you and your pony are at in order to place you in the correct riding group at camp – it also gives us a chance to pair up people at similar standards and also a chance for you to meet fellow campers. In addition it gives us a chance to make sure your hat is up to standard and tagged as well as checking your tack is in good condition, with no stitching coming undone, and fits your pony correctly. I hope you all have a fun time and look forward to seeing you on Saturday.

Senior camp forms and payments were due in by 1st JUNE at the latest - as of this evening I am still missing 27 sets!!!! Please can all that are guilty please put through my door (by hand or by post) by Friday 15th at the very latest as arrangements are on hold until ALL forms are recieved. We are unable to sort ride groups, yards etc which then means transport to Wivelsden and kitchen help rota's cannot be sorted - I am already being asked when parents will know when they are due in to help and I am sorry to say I can't answer that.
Thankyou to all that have got forms back on time, very much appreicated and sorry others are holding things up.

Hi
Please note that there will be an all day rally at South Brockwells Farm
17th August 2018
10am to 3pm
To Include:
Each of the top 4 numbered points will last for 1 hour. The aim is to have no more than 6 riders in each group, and for the groups to be split into ability. This day is open to all ages and abilities.
This is a lovely cross country course and has been designed for every ability from those jumping cross-poles on the first hole up to 90cms. There are banks, steps and many other interesting and exciting fences and they have been made so not matter what age or ability you are, you can have a go. It will be an ideal day to get you and your pony ready for the Margaret Sheffield ODE in September.
If you have very young children who you feel would not be able to cope with 3 hours of riding, if there are sufficient numbers I can do a shorter day for them at a reduced price. So please contact me if you would like this option. Although having already attended Mini camp I'm sure they will be buzzing to do another day with their friends and ponies.
The fee for this will be £55 payable to SDHEPC, which will also include a BBQ and drinks throughout the day and hire of the venue.
I currently have 4 instructors booked, and one on hold. If this is as popular as in previous years I may need to recruit some more instructors so please can you submit your rally forms and payments by bacs or cheques to me ASAP, in order to give me time to find additional instructors. I'm happy to receive rally forms and bacs payment advices by email to helenkaya@harpercraven.com . If you would prefer to post me your rally form and a cheque or remittance please send it to: Helen Burgess, 83 Eastbourne Road, Lower Willingdon, Eastbourne, East Sussex, BN20 9NR
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE can you be as accurate as you can on your child's and pony's ability on the rally form so that the riders are put into the best groups so the children can all gain maximum benefit from the day.
If you would like to stay and have a BBQ too there will be a small fee for the cost of a Burger or Sausage etc. If you could confirm how many extra BBQ's you would like I can ensure that I don't run out!!
If you have any queries or require any further information please don't hesitate to contact me.
I look forward to hearing from you and seeing you on the 17th August, if not before at camp.
Kind Regards
Helen
