17 June 2019Scottish Riding Club Championships
That's the schedules for the Scottish RC Championships now available.
The event is on 28/29 September at Auchlishie with Dressage from Intro level upwards, Showjumping starting at 70cm, Style Jumping from 75 cm, and Eventing from 80cm, with Team and Individual classes. Stabling is available on site.
Please note entries will not be accepted unless accompanied by passport/vaccination records. The organisers also need an army of helpers to make the event happen, so all members and supporters are encouraged to head down for a horsey weekend and volunteer to help whilst there.
Any RC member interested in competing should contact Davina Johnston who is gathering names. If you let her know what level and discipline you are interested in. This is just to gauge interest at this stage - you're not committing yourself to anything yet.
