Febce judges needed for Hunter Trial 15th May at Wivelsden

Hi Everyone

Its that time of year again the Hunter Trail Season.

We run our 1st event on Sunday 15th May.

I am looking for as many fence judges as possible who can stay All Day.  I can then give your fence numbers for the whole event and it keeps it flowing better. I will of course be very grateful to anyone who can help AM or PM to.

Briefing times will be 8am and 12.30 pm and I will explain everything on the day. There will be plenty of food and drink so no need to bring your own.

Lets hope its a lovely day and a good start to our season.

Please email/ring me asap if you are available.

Thank you

Claire

Combined Training on Monday CANCELLED

 
CANCELLATION OF COMBINED TRAINING 2ND MAY 2016
 
Dear All,
 
It is with regret that we write to inform you that we have today had to make the decision to cancel the planned Combined Training event on the 2nd May 2016 at Plumpton Racecourse.
 
Regrettably, we have had to make this hard decision based on a number of unforeseen circumstances.
 
For those who have entered and have already paid either with a BACS transfer or cash I will arrange your refunds within the next few days. For those who have sent payment by cheque I will securely shred those immediately.
 
Once again, we apologise for any disappointment that this decision may have caused, but hopefully we look forward to seeing lots of you on the 15th May at the Hunter Trials at Wivelsden Farm.  
 
Best regards
 
Stuart Fellingham

Camp setting rally reminder for those wanting to go to any of the camps

On behalf of the camp committee, please can I remind any one hoping to go to one of the camps this summer, that is a condition of going to camp that you attend a camp standard setting rally so that you can be assessed and put in to the correct group for your riding ability.  In addition you will need to have attended 2 mounted working rallies in this current year, ideally on the horse you are hoping to take to camp.

Wedneday 1st June is the next available  setting rally and a limited number of spaces at the remaining rally on Saturday 25th June. Both of these are being held at Chelwood Equestrian and cost £12.50. To book, please post me a completed rally booking form and your payment. (If paying by BACS please attach a copy of the transaction with your rally form.)

Whilst camp may seem a way off, it isn't  from an organising point of view and we do want to accommodate all of you wanting to go to camp.  If you need any help or have questions with this, please contact me.

Many thanks in anticipation of your co-operation with this.
