DID YOU KNOW…
…that about 20/30 years ago, Cadora-Ontario was the recipient of approximately $20,000./year
(which came from some Ontario ministry via the OEF?
…that over the years, the process via which these funds were accessed became more
convoluted, difficult…and…changed almost every year?
…that, as the difficulty of the process to get funding INcreased, the amount of the funding
dramatically DEcreased?
…that, in order for Cadora-Ontario to be eligible for any funding at all, the organization has to
be a ”member organization” of the OEF…which costs $275.00/year + applicable taxes (which is
guaranteed to be returned to all those organizations that apply)?
…the allotment of funds is all done on a “points” system (i.e. the more points you accrue, the
more funding you get)?
…that you get a whole lot of points if your funding submission includes programmes that
emphasize “youth, legacy and/or education”?
…that points go way up for large groups (and Cadora-Ontario is a “large” group)?
…that two years ago, Cadora-Ontario received a grant of about $2000.00 after dutifully
surviving all the submission pitfalls?
…that last year – with the submission requirements having done a 180 degree about-face, and
Cadora-Ontario completing them all by the due date – this organization got $0000.00?
[Yes…you read it right…zero…!!!] But then – no member organization got anything. We were
not alone…
…that this year, the $275.00 fee to become a member association of the OEF has been waived
(“Complimentary for 2015” it said…)
…that funding for this year looks as bleak as it was for last year, and that there seems little
value in becoming a “member association” of the OEF?
…that we joined anyway…basically to see what happens?
Any questions?
PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Greetings from Florida everyone!! I hope you’re all weathering winter well in Ontario which I
hear is no real problem this year because it’s so mild…WAIT…that was a weather report I heard
from Hawaii!! I guess winter is dealing Ontario a bad hand again this year. Being here in Florida
(amid the waving palm trees and spending countless hours at the beach and driving around
with the car windows down), I can only imagine how bad it is at home!! I made a vow to myself
a few years ago: NO MORE SNOW…EVER!!! The upside of this is that I’m able to keep this vow.
The downside is…well…I guess I’m just too old to get through a typical Ontario winter any
longer. I’ll take age (I guess). BUT…on with things Cadora-Ontarioan…
If you were one of the attendees at our AGM / Awards Brunch late last November, you’ll know
how successful it was. With just over 70 people in attendance, we broke our old record for
numbers! In addition to handing out a plethora of awards – and it was very rewarding to have
so many recipients there in person to accept said awards – Canadian Olympian, Lorraine
Stubbs, was there to give a brief talk on the history of Cadora (Lorraine being a founding
member of the organization!) and to encourage the youth of Ontario to get involved in our
sport. Please see other pages of this newsletter for the names of our many award winners, the
minutes of the AGM, as well as the treasurer’s report.
The 2014 Ontario Silver Dressage Championships were resounding successes in both areas of
the province. Many thanks to Joan Allum and her crew at Oakhurst Farm (Acton) and Lynn
Young and her LDA members at Eastwood (London). Plans are well under way for this year’s
edition of the Championships. The venues and the personnel are the same as last year
(Oakhurst in the East and Eastwood in the West. Many thanks for doing repeat performances
this year. Our judges for this event are Dorita Peer and Anne Galt. Please watch our web site
www.cadora.ca/cadora-ontario/ for the prize list which should be available in early summer.
And…a final word on joining Cadora-Ontario: If you look ahead in this newsletter, you’ll see that
Cadora-Ontario is pleased to give to its winners not only product prizes (sheets, saddle pads,
wraps, etc.), but we also give out a number of cash awards…BUT…all of these awards are given
ONLY to our members. How do you actually become a member? It’s easy…just join (either
through your local group or directly via the membership form found in this newsletter or on our
web site www.cadora.ca/cadora-ontario/ NO LATER THAN JUNE 1ST!! If you take a close look at
our winners, you’ll notice that (due to the manner in which our awards criteria are structured),
there are many repeat winners. You have no idea how many times riders do really well and are
in line for some significant prizes…only to learn that they are NOT members and, hence, are
ineligible for awards. And remember: we now award BOTH Bronze and Silver competitors who
are Cadora-Ontario members. And the cost to become a member of Cadora-Ontario? A very
reasonable $10. / person (junior or senior) And…one more final word on joining CadoraOntario (and to answer a question I’ve been asked a few times lately): the Cadora Inc Omnibus
is not included as part of a Cadora-Ontario membership. If you’d like an Omnibus, then you’ll
have to join Cadora INC, our national organization (but…more on that later…)!
And finally (REALLY!!) thanks for joining Cad-Ont in 2014! I look forward to getting your
membership for this year as well

STEPHEN CLARKE…
…will NOT be making an appearance under the auspices of Cadora-Ontario this year!! I tried…I
REALLY did…but…he had some judges’ clinic thing in Austria the weekend we could
accommodate him here. Imagine!!???! Choosing Austria over us!!???!!? Stephen WILL be in
Ontario (Vankleek Hill, near the Quebec border) the first weekend in October.
THE MYSTERY KNOWN AS “CADORA”
I’ve been involved with “Cadora” for a whole lot of years and, while its operation and
ramifications seem second nature to me, it continually mystifies a lot of people out there. I get
many questions about “Cadora”, and it all comes down to a basic misunderstanding of how it all
works. With misunderstanding come confusion and frustration and then…maybe even mistrust!
I’d like to unravel the “mystery known as Cadora” and (hopefully!) I don’t/won’t confuse anyone
in the process .
To begin with, Cadora exists on three levels: national (Cadora INC), provincial (Cadora-Ontario)
and local (Conestoga Cadora, Windsor-Essex Cadora, etc). You can join one, two or all three of
these levels depending on what you want from us. Many local groups collect fees for all three
levels. Many people join directly (independently) by using the membership forms on line.
Let’s look at Cadora INC. Cadora INC’s membership fees are set by the Inc Board of Directors and
are currently $30./senior and $20./junior (and these rates haven’t changed in 20 years!!) With a
Cadora INC membership you get one copy of the Cadora INC Omnibus which most people want
(and well they should!) It’s a classy little publication with all kinds of information; however, its
main attraction are the dressage tests (EC, FEI, and Cadora. Yes…Cadora has its own tests for
use at those non-EC, in-house, schooling local only competitions. BUT…you can get an Omnibus
ONLY if you are a member of the national organization, Cadora INC. It’s a “membership benefit”
and cannot be purchased as an entity unto itself. Cadora INC has its own web site
www.cadora.ca where you can find everything it does, a membership form, and all kinds of
information about out nationally famous “Build a Better Dressage Horse” Symposia led by FEI 5*
Dressage Judge, Stephen Clarke. And…this is where a lot of confusion occurs. Many times in the
past, people apply to either ride in or audit a Stephen Clarke symposia not realizing that a “local
only” Cadora membership doesn’t allow for this. In order to ride for Stephen, you have to be a
member of Cadora INC (the national Cadora organization). In order to audit at a reduced Cadora
fee, you have to be a member of Cadora INC I guess the bottom line here is “membership has its
privileges.”
As for Cadora-Ontario: this organization was initiated a couple of years after Cadora INC was
formed and has thrived ever since. Currently, junior and senior rates are the same at
$10./person. The business of Cadora-Ontario is managed by an Executive which consists of one
individual from each of the Cadora groups in Ontario. It is their responsibility to act as conduits
between the Cadora-Ontario Board and their local groups. The Cadora-Ontario Executive usually
meets face-to-face once a year and has at least one teleconference call as well. CadoraOntario’s major contribution to dressage in the province is the management of the Silver
dressage circuit and the coordination of the two-divisional Ontario Silver Dressage
Championships. With a Cadora-Ontario membership, you acquire eligibility to all of our year-end
awards (see pr3evious pages of this newsletter) as well as preferred auditing rates and the
opportunity to ride in a Stephen Clarke clinic. [Stephen was able to do clinics under the auspices
of Cadora-Ontario for three consecutive years; we welcome the chance to do this again pending
his availability in the future.] Cadora-Ontario members do not receive an Omnibus (since this is
a national initiative) and, unlike Cadora INC, Cadora-Ontario does not issue membership cards.
For Cadora-Ontario’s full range of benefits, please go to www.cadora.ca/cadora-ontario/
Locally, there are eight Cadora groups in the province of Ontario that send representatives to sit
on the Board of Cadora-Ontario. Each local club sets its own membership rates and offers
programmes that the local members want and/or need. Such endeavours can include
competitions (and most groups offer a series of competitions with their own local awards),
riding and/or judging clinics, film/video evenings, tack sales, purely social gatherings, lectures,
etc. Local groups usually offer their services at discounted prices to members in order to
encourage membership, thereby sustaining their numbers.
Since its inception, Cadora has been viewed as a “grass roots” organization (a designation it
carries to this day). Hopefully, this brief overview of the organization has provided some insight
into what we do and why we do it. Should ou have any comments and/or questions, do not
hesitate to contact me at dressagegames@aol.com
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL BRONZE & SILVER SHOW

ONTARIO EQUESTRIAN FEDERATION’S
“PEOPLE MAKE A DIFFERENCE” AWARD
[Editor’s Note: Each year, the Ontario Equestrian Federation solicits nominations from
its member associations for its “People Make a Difference” Award. In 2014, CadoraOntario nominated Glanbrook Cadora member, Crystal Ripa, for this award; we hope to
be able to make this presentation to Crystal this year. I think you’ll agree with me that
our nominee is worthy of the award!]
About 10 years ago, a close friend of Crystal Ripa was diagnosed with breast
cancer. Without pause, Crystal (together with her sister, Amber) made a decision
to make a difference to raise breast cancer awareness (as well as funds to support
research) by organizing the “Pink Ribbon Ride” which has, as of 2014, been held
for eight consecutive years. Crystal is a powerhouse when it comes to acquiring
donated facilities, dressage rings and silent auction items as well as the services of
a host of volunteers and officials, and she does it all with gentle persuasion and
gracious acceptance. All participants are encouraged to wear pink, and a fun
relaxed atmosphere prevails from beginning to end as everyone gets a ribbon.
Over the years, these Pink Ribbon Rides have raised thousands of dollars for
breast cancer research and have been donated to the Juravinski Cancer Centre
(Hamilton, ON). None of this would be possible without the commitment and
dedication of Crystal Ripa.
