Leics & Rutland Branch Meeting & 2007 Awards Night
The Leicestershire and Rutland group of Endurance GB held its seventh Branch Annual Meeting on Friday 18th January at the Conservative Club; and was well attended by members, their guests and committee members.
Chairperson Sharon Davison welcomed everyone and gave a report on the Group’s activities in 2007 and advised members of forthcoming events and changes that were envisaged for 2008.The Treasurer Lynn Hopkins gave a full and detailed report of the Groups financial matters.
The Group is trying hard to serve its existing members well and also to encourage more people to try out the sport of Endurance and to this effect an NEW Associate Membership Scheme is being introduced so that new people can savour the joys of spending time with their horse riding over beautiful countryside, at an advantageous entry fee rate. Full details will be published at a later date and will be available from any committee member or from the Groups blogspot webpage:
