We are lucky as a club to have HRCAV and EA dressage judge, Berni Saunders as a regular instructor. At our recent protocol day, not only did Berni judge 2 dressage tests for each rider but she also took photos of each rider before their first test to help them understand her feedback. She generously shared her knowledge, expertise, tips and photos. Ree set the pencilling bar very high by recording all feedback (official and unofficial) for riders to provide maximum value. A great day. Here are some of our members enjoying the special tuition.

Huge Congratulations to our very own Cathy Simmons and Ritzy on a massively successful day today at the the first HRCAV individual championships.

Is your neck long enough Ritzy for all those gorgeous ribbons?

Huge congratulations to our member, Bianca (above left), who at the recent HRCAV AGM was recognised for being in the Top 10 Showing combinations over the year.

A weekend of super lessons both flat and poles/jumps, good company and a few wines. This has become an annual event for the club and is an eagerly anticipated even on our club calendar.
