BROOKSIDE SHOW
September 10 and 11, 2008
The classes available are: Inhand, 3 and under, Inhand, 4 and over, Inhand, partbred and Open Ridden. Those of you who have attended the show know, that these classes are the last on the list and usually occur mid afternoon. In the past, the Welsh folks have given me a time so that we can plan our arrivals … for example, “the M&M classes will not start before 1:00” – this allows us to arrive and assure we don’t miss our classes. I will be getting this time over the next few weeks and will forward it to you. It is safe to say at this point, that the classes will not start before noon.
Regarding entry fees … this has been confusing in the past, so I wanted to outline here, what we have to pay and what we do not have to pay. When completing your entry, please pay the following:
Halter or Performance Class entry fees
Drug fee (per pony)
Office fee (per owner)
WPCAC fee (per pony)
Non WPCAC member fee (per pony)
We DO NOT need to pay the WPCSA or measurement fees.
We are very fortunate to have the WPCAC “host us” – they have been very gracious in including us, and I can tell you that this is not, unfortunately, the case everywhere in the US. I’m looking forward to a great show with even more ponies than in then past. As I mentioned earlier, please pass along this information to other M&M owners, people you have sold ponies to, people interested in getting involved with M&Ms or buying ponies, … we can always use more support!
Now, for the more complicated issue …. This year we wanted to offer a few additional classes for the M&Ms. The WPCAC has agreed to let us do that. They have donated their second arena (with jumps) for our use on Friday morning. They will provide the extra set of ribbons/awards if sufficient entries in the extra classes. We can select the type of classes we want and we need to provide volunteers and a judge. This makes it fairly easy and straight forward for us to hold some extra classes.
The big question is can these extra classes be supported? I have two leads on judges (a visiting UKer and a veteran UK horseperson with M&M experience) who could be obtained at minimal costs that would be covered by sufficient entries. We would need volunteers. I have lined up two friends who have agreed to act as secretary and announcer – but we’ll also need ring steward, gate person, and just a few extra helping hands.
Most importantly, and I can’t stress this enough – we need commitment to attend these extra classes!! If we can’t get 4 or 5 ponies in a class … I don’t see the benefit of adding the classes. I don’t have any personal interest in adding these classes (I only have one riding pony and not even sure I have a rider for him yet!) – So I’m counting on everyone else to help me arrange this and support it, if it is truly what is wanted.
We can add any classes that we want – the suggestions I have are as follows, but we can entertain other options (if you are unsure of any of these classes, they are modeled after the traditional UK classes offered for M&Ms and you can find more information at www.NPSAmerica.org under “guidelines for offer M&M classes” in the competitions section)
M&M Open Driving
M&M Driving turnout
WHP (Working Hunter Pony)
Leading Rein pony (all heights)
Novice Ridden pony (walk trot only – can’t enter any class with canters)
Please let me know ASAP if you can commit to additional classes on Friday morning and which classes you would like to see. I need to hear from everyone. If I don’t get enough interest in this … I will not arrange it. I need to have it all “figured” out by August 1st at the latest!!
If you have any questions, comments, or etc … please let me know. Thanks for your help!
