Hi All,
The Committee have put together a Flat Work Clinic for members for the month of February. We are planning on starting the clinic at 5.30pm so if anyone can make that time please let me know when booking your place (this does not guarantee you a 5.30pm slot). As per previous years we will do our best to keep riders within their grades. As mentioned at our AGM this can be quite tricky sometimes and it can be hard to please everyone, so please bare this in mind. We will do our best to try to facilitate everyone as best we can. We will then run with a second clinic at 6.40pm and finish on a 7.50pm clinic.
This Clinic was proven to be very popular with members last year and we would really love to see all our members getting into the swing of things and coming along to join in on the fun. There will be approximately 4 in each lesson.
This year the region are kicking off with a Dressage League and the first date is February 25th in Tinahealy, followed by 3 more in March at different venues. So what better way to get into the swing of things than with our own Flat Work Clinic.
Dates:
Tues 7th February – 5.30pm – 6.40pm – 7.50pm
Tues 14th February – 5.30pm – 6.40pm – 7.50pm
Tues 21st February – 5.30pm – 6.40pm – 7.50pm
Tues 28th February – 5.30pm – 6.40pm – 7.50pm
Times:
There will be 3 x 1 hour clinics each night and times will be allocated when we get the final number of those interested and grades.
Venue/Instructor:
Mount Juliet Equestrian Centre and Ivan Kelly will be your Instructor.
Cost:
€72.00 for the 4 nights (€18.00 per night). This needs to be paid on booking your place, no bookings will be accepted unless payment is received in full. If there is a night that you cannot make your lesson you can always get someone (Club Member) to take your place and that member can reimburse you the cost of the lesson. Please remember it is up to YOU to find someone to take your place and organise monies etc., but it must be a Club member. Sometimes I may have someone on the reserve list but I cannot always guarantee that I will and again it will not be my responsibility to fill your place but yours.
The Club have agreed to subsidize this Clinic to help members towards the cost.
You will need to book your place in advance so please send me your fee (DO NOT RING ME AND BOOK YOUR PLACE BY PHONE OR EMAIL), this is unfair and puts me in an awkward position and remember only fully paid up club members who have received their AIRC card for 2012 can do this Clinic. Please post to: Gillian Hennessy, The Racecourse, Kells Road, Kilkenny.
Closing date for names is Monday the 16th January, This is in order to give me a chance to organise times etc. If you need any more information please feel free to ring me on 087 6744968.
Best Wishes,
Gillian.
