Wang and Alpine Show

Both clubs worked well together and raised a good
amount of profit which was spilt between the clubs.
It was worth doing and we will look forward to doing
it again next year. Once again we would like to thank
our generous sponsors who have now all been
officially thanked with a letter of appreciation, please
support them:

Proposed change to our constitution

It has been proposed that Alpine ARC change our
constitution to lower the membership joining age
from 18yo to 16 yo. Any change to our constitution
requires a vote - so a letter will be going out to
members shortly, please watch out for this letter as
your vote is important.

Show Jump Comp

Once again thanks to all who helped out and
competed on the day - it was a great success. Results
are on web site. Congrats to Alpine Riders Gin
Armstrong, Leonie Ropper, Annette Tompson, Kerrie
OMera, Lou Cowden, Cailin Marsh who rode - as well
as our members Gin Armstrong who is an official
Course Builder and Bec Feltrin who is an Official
Judge.
