Suspension of rallies and events

Due to the recent flu outbreaks and many of our venues being on "shut down", we are canceling all rallies and events until further notice to help stop unnecessary risk of exposure to our own and other horses.

Also a reminder of an earlier statement regarding our flu vaccination protocol, that we need all horses to have been vaccinated 6 months prior to attending a rally/event and there must have been a clear 7 days from vaccination to attending any rally/event.

Thank you for your co-operation.

Branch protocol regarding flu and infectious diseases for attending rallies and events

With regard to the recent flu outbreaks, please be advised that we may need to cancel rallies and events at short notice.

In the meantime we ask that all horses must have had a vaccination within 6 months in order attend rallies and events.

If you are in a yard where there is a suspected or confirmed case of any infectious disease, who will not be permitted to attend any mounted Pony Club activities or shows whilst representing SDHE.

Please take your own precautions - avoid unnecessary periods of time standing with other horses, letting horses touch, sharing transport with unknown horses etc.

If you are in any doubt that your horse is unwell do not travel to another yard or show centre.

Thankyou for your co-operation with this.

Senior Camp - first time campers invitation

We will be holding a briefing session for first time Senior Campers and their families on Wednesday 27^th February at The Bent Arms, Lindfield, 19.15 for a 19.30 start – this will be in the upstairs function room.

In previous years this has been well attended and is an opportunity to find out what Senior Camp is all about.  The camp staff will be there to answer any questions you may have as our aim is to ensure every camper has a thoroughly enjoyable, productive and memorable experience.

We are hoping to have a former yard leader there to take everyone through a typical day in the life at camp.

It would be of help if you could let me know if you would like to attend so we have an idea of how many places to set up for.  Many thanks.

Crockstead Show - CANCELLED due to Equine Influenza outbreak

In light of the current Equine Influenza outbreak nationally we have reluctantly decided to cancel this weekends show.

 

We believe this is the right decision and will help prevent the risk of spreading. 

 

Refunds will be issued in due course. 

Branch Website

We are very pleased to let you all know that the SDHEPC new website is live, you can view it here http://www.sdhepc.org .

 

The most important new feature is the ability to book rallies online and make payments using PayPal.  This will become our preferred method of operation and we hope this will be easier for everyone.  You can also use it to pay membership subscriptions and purchase a range of items.

Just a few notes below

• As with all new websites, there will be glitches and things may not work as we would hope. Please bear with us as our priority was to get the site live so membership can be renewed online
• We had a lack of suitable high res images. Hence why some are blurry. The photos have been chosen on how they fitted the page. If you would like us to remove a photo please let Rebekah Walker or Gemma Johnson know ASAP
• If you have any Pony Club high res images, please send them to Rebekah or Gemma as we will be adding more and updating
• More events and rallies will be added next week
• If you have any feedback please forward to Rebekah or Gemma

We hope you all enjoy using the new website and we look forward to adding more information, results and news from our branch.
