August 2010 Newsletter
THANKYOU and WELL DONE to everyone who represented the club at The Ultimate 2010. The good news is that we are joint Club Champions 2010 gaining equal top points with Aire Valley Riding Club – here’s to next years event – can we do the double???
I’d also just like to say another well done – this time to Lyndsay Hancock with Mesham Metz who took the individual Supreme Ridden Championship at The Ultimate for the club.
Moving on, we had a really good day at the Trophy Show – great turnout again and some very happy faces! Special mention to our Fancy Dress competitors who made a great effort, the judge had a difficult time in that class! Congratulations to Amelia Dumbleton and Merlin who came out tops this time!
Next show is our Charity Show on Sunday 12th September, all proceeds from this show are to be donated to Help For Heroes. The schedule for this show is enclosed and we hope loads of you can make it and support this worthwhile cause. If anyone would like to help out by stewarding at this show could you let us know, as some of the committee would like to show at this event if other help is available.
We’ve also added to the events calendar, as those who check out our face book site will know, with an end of season Dressage, Mini Cross Country, Jumping, In Hand & Gymkhana Show on Sunday 26th September, schedule again enclosed.
