Confirmed Points List

Hello all,

Please find attached the revised points list, one or two adjustments. Don’t worry, you still have a trophy if you were on the last list!

Click here for confirmed points

Please remember to be consistent with your combination names next year, and if something changes mid-season, you must declare it so everything is a fair and level playing field. But I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that!

Don’t forget rooms are still available at the Holiday Inn, and you won’t get in without a ticket bought beforehand. Time is getting on for ordering rosettes and sashes too.

Rosette and sash order form.

See you there!

Thanks for coming!!

Thanks to everyone who came to our last show of the season today. We hope you had a good day at the show.

Well this is it, the final goodbye for 2011. We would like thank everyone who has come to our shows this year, it has been a fantastic year with the quality of competition being excellent as always. The committee has worked hard every month since the start of the year to put together a full programme of shows while promoting the North West Showjumping & Working Hunter Championships. 2011 also saw the launch of the Blue Chip North West Showing Championships. On top of that we’ve held Show Jumping Clinics with Jane Carruthers and a Fun Day in August too.

Don’t forget to book your tickets for our Presentation Night @ Holiday Inn, Runcorn on Saturday 26th November.

Also make sure you keep visiting the website for details on our winter shows and AGM.

We look forward to seeing you at our first show in April 2012!!

September 2011 Newsletter

Hi all,

Well, this is it… The countdown to the final show of the season! Those of you looking at the points will know if you are in the running for trophies or not. A few surprises are always thrown up, as well as the extra trophies we don’t tell you about until Presentation Night, so keep Saturday 26th November free! Tickets will be on sale at the September show, so get yours and ensure a front row seat! We will be at Holiday Inn Runcorn, as you know, and we are hoping to negotiate room discounts for those of you wishing to stay. I’ll keep you informed as I get the details.

We have our Junior quiz and newsletter as usual, make sure you get your completed quizzes sent in with your pre entries, or bring along on show morning to hand in ready for the prize draw from all correct entries. We always have some lovely prizes!

If you were lucky enough to win one of the perpetual trophies at our September Championship Show, you need to return it as soon as possible.

On the show day is NOT acceptable. Please contact Rowena to arrange returning your trophy on 07759079729. For Presentation Night perpetual trophies, these MUST be returned by the September show. Every year we have to chase one or two, and it’s ridiculous that we risk someone not receiving their trophy on the big night due to someone being too thoughtless to return it. Believe me, you do NOT want a visit from me the night before Presentation to collect it! So keep your chairman happy and return them all to the September show.

Ok, enjoy your newsletter, get your pre entries in and see you at either the BlueChip North West Showing Championships on Saturday 17th September, or the September show on Sunday 25th!
