Hope everybody is enjoying their Easter break and getting some good riding time in. Our club day again was met with a stunning day for everybody to enjoy. It's great to see new faces each month and get some good feedback from them. If you ever have any suggestions or concerns feel free to or call me to discuss. Big thankyou for Monica Bird to judge for us on the day as a last minute replacement. We also had pink for Pam day which raised some money towards one of her passions Leadbeater possums, thanks to everybody that donated. Look forward to our new website which should be launched in the coming weeks. Look forward to catching up at our next day in April still PCAV park. Happy riding. Michelle Oliver.

2 DATES TO REMEMBER April 10 th Sunday Freshman s Day PCAV Park May 7 th Saturday Club Day PCAV Park June 12 th Sunday Freshman s Day PCAV Park July 10 th Sunday Club Day PCAV Park August 14 th Sunday Freshman s Day PCAV Park September 11 th Sunday Club Day PCAV Park October Official Comp November 6th th Sunday PCAV Park December 11 th Sunday PCAV Park IMPORTANT YVDC NEWS As a result of rising costs and having to move our club days to the new and slightly more expensive venue of PCAV Equestrian Park (as Glenbrae is no longer available to us until further notice) the YVDC Committee has decided to increase the entry from $20 to $25 per test as of January We have not had a rise in entry fees for some years and our club has been running these days at a loss. So to make sure we continue to be financial and for the future of our club, we thought a $5 increase would be acceptable to our members. Another forward thinking idea we are going to implement at all of or club days (excluding official comps) is allowing the use of a snaffle bit at ALL LEVELS including the FEI Tests. Riders will now have the choice to use either a double bridle or a snaffle in Advanced and above tests. This change takes place immediately. Club Day Entries - Please note that NO LATE ENTRIES will be accepted after the closing date in the future for our club comps. If you have special requests for times or duties, please put them with the entries at the time so as our event secretary can try to accommodate them if possible and organize the day and draw without having to reschedule everyone several times.
