Rally June 21st
This was with Pam Hall, was a lovely day and I think everyone enjoyed themselves. It was a great turnout and we had lots of
unmounted spectator’s aswell which was nice to see. Thanks to Barb and those that stayed back with her in the dark to smudge
the arena!

Michelle has held booking open until Wednesday. We will be having a BBQ lunch. BARC will supply the Burgers and Bread and
Robyn is donating the sausages. Please bring a salad or sweet to share. If you are coming unmounted please let Michelle or Lisa
know so we make sure we get enough meat to feed everyone.

RALLY GUIDELINES
Multiple horses at rallies (i.e. lessons on 2 horses), subject to there being space available:
Reminder to members to be in correct uniform at rallies.
Minimum 8 riders to run rally.
·
If less than 8 riders we can open up to allow private and/or invite other HRCAV clubs to attend so the rally can go
ahead.
·
Closing time for booking to ride at a rally is the Monday night prior to rally.
·
Any cancellations after closing day will still have to pay the lesson cost, unless; you can provide a doctors or vet
certificate.
·
Maximum number of riders in a lesson = 4
·
For rallies where Flat & Jumping will take place, these will be separate lessons, usually flat in the morning, jumping after
lunch. 1 lesson = $30, 2 lessons (same combination) = $45.
Code of Conduct BARC wishes members to note that decisions on participation of horses/riders in a lesson shall be at the
discretion of the instructor on that day. The HRCAV Code of Conduct can be found on the HRCAV website.
Care of sand arena- There are a couple of soft spots on arena marked with cones (leave the cones out)– riders should try to
avoid these areas. The arena must be smudged weekly or more often after heavy use. BARC & CIPC need someone to do it
every Sunday or Monday. Any volunteers?? If you are there on these days the keys to shed are available from Elmore’s letterbox
just down the road. Motor bike riders must be licensed and wear a helmet while riding the 4WD bike.
