August Change of date of our 3rd Dynamik Stallions Mid-Week comp. To give members and other riders a further opportunity to qualify for the State championships we have brought forward the third comp by a week to Wednesday August 14th with the State Champs entries now closing on the 15th. So, if you are in need of one more score or just would like to run through the tests both the 2's and the 3's will be on offer. Elementary and above will be in the indoor and Prelim, Novice and Prep tests on the International. Entries open next Monday 22nd on Nominate.
The Paris Olympics are nearly upon us and the fight for the dressage podium is going to be very close and an intriguing competition. Fabulous to see WA's own Will Matthew make the team. We are planning a Sunday Aug 4th social get together at the SEC to watch the Freestyle final. Final timing needs to be confirmed but we are planning that from 4pm to 7.30pm we can watch the freestyles upstairs at the SEC on the projector screen with the bar open and catering by Bubbles'n'bites. We will hopefully have full details later this week but in the meantime please mark this get together in your diary.
