We are collecting information from members who are interested in attempting a national level rating in 2015 - these include C3, B, and A, and also HB and HA for horse management.
The availability of a rating location and date will be based on the feedback I receive from members. If you have an interest, please reply by November 15 and I will summarize information for the region. If the region doesn't get enough interest, they may reconsider whether to hold a rating, so your feedback is important. thanks, please call me with any questions. Dear Club members,

Hi everyone,
It is that time of the year to get started with unmounted lessons. We are trying something new this year to hopefully increase participation and convenience. We will have unmounted once a month for two hours starting at noon. See schedule attached. Every pony clubber that is a C1 HM or above needs to look at the lessons and choose 3 that they would like to teach. I will do my best to give you two of those topics but it will be first come first serve so put your request in early. I will pick what you teach if your request is not received by October 27 or your topics have already been chosen. Please send Your request to [email protected] Thanks Sherry Rowlett.
