Feedback received from these events:
"Hi Donna,
You beat me to it! I was going to send you an email this morning to say thanks for having us and to let you know that I think you guys did a terrific job with the show. As you know, we have been sponsoring and trading at the Amateur Show since it started and I must say that this was the best one yet from a competitors point of view as well as a trader. Please let the committee know that the food was fabulous and we have never been better looked after and appreciated at any show run by the association before. The announcer also did a great job announcing us all day as this really does help us. Again thanks and well done on a great show." - Vicki Clayton, Three Bags Full, Sponsor, NSW Amateur Show.
"I just wanted to say thank you for inviting me to judge at the Amateur Show. The show was really well run and organised, the stewards (thanks Robert!!) and committee were super helpful and the classes were good, in particular, the purebreds where I had one of the best roll ups of good quality purebred Arabians I’ve seen since I’ve been judging. It was a pleasure to be able to judge at such a show so thank you for a very enjoyable day!! Please pass on my congratulations to the show committee. Kind regards,
Tiffany" - Tiffany Green, Judge, NSW Amateur Show.
AUGUST 2010
ASSOCIATE DRESSAGE DAY held Saturday 14 August 2010

On Saturday 14th August the NSW Arabian Horse Association ran its first Open Snaffle Bit Dressage Day at Hawkesbury Riding Club grounds, Clarendon. Thankfully the weather was cool, a little windy at times, but quite pleasant.
This was run to provide, what the Association sees, as a much needed event to encourage people to bring their horses out to ride in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and to enjoy the day with their horses.
Twelve Tests were run ranging from Prep 1 for ponies to Elementary for open horses.
The day was very well supported by, both purebreds and derivatives from our registry. It was also lovely to see ponies and horses that we would not normally see at our shows. It was a pleasure to see so many riders enjoying their horses, competitors ranged from children riding their first ever tests, a “mature” male adult who had only been riding for six months, through to a lady rider who had not ridden in a Dressage test for 41 years (and she placed 3rd in her test) well done!
It was an enjoyable day that Jan Nichols put a huge effort into to organizing and running together with the dedicated help of Lesley Dowey and Lisa Bloch, NSWAHA Committee members, and volunteers.
Thank you to all our competitors, sponsors and the wonderful group of dedicated helpers.

We hope to run another event in the autumn of 2011 and welcome your feedback, comments and suggestions for this.

Congratulations to Les, Greg and Deb for a day well run, and a big thank you to Chris and her husband for running the BBQ.
