July20th & 21st Low Kirkbride, Auldgirth, Dumfries
August 17th &18th Nether Stenries, Carrutherstown, Dumfries
September 7th & 8th Milnecroft, Lockerbie
Because of the increased cost of First Aid cover, entry fees at all events after the Bladnoch event will be £40.00 .
As discussed at the AGM we planned to keep the same dressage tests as last year providing they stayed on British Carriage Driving’s list of tests. I am pleased to confirm that the tests remain the same as last year, NOVICE A for Juniors, beginners, Novice, and VSE; NOVICE B For Open and multiples. Anyone doing the field class will drive the test for their category. Insufficient entries in the above classes will be amalgamated.
Membership Fees for 2024 remain the same:
Driving members £30.00
Junior members £20.00
Supporting members £12.00
If you are a member of BC please let me have your membership No. and category.
Memberships are now due to be paid. Please send them to Pat Gillan Mossburn Wigtown DG8 6BE
The SWSHDC and Dumfries and Galloway club are once again working together and offering members entry fees at the lower fee and charging the non member fee when you visit each club.
The event schedule will be sent out next month
