HVRC SHOW/EVENT DATES 2020
Show dates for your diary:
JUNIOR CAMP Derby College 10th – 12th July
This year’s Junior Camp will be held at Derby College on Friday 10th to Sunday 12th July. It is open to all abilities, including lead rein with parental participation. This is a great opportunity to develop your skills with accredited instructors and have lots of fun and surprises along the way.
Please can parents of all junior members who are interested in attending junior camp please email Claire Huntington on clairecracker@aol.com.
SENIOR CAMP 13th to 18th Sept at Somerford Park Farm
The popular senior camp will run from 13th to 18th September at the wonderful Somerford Park Farm in Cheshire. Booking this year will be via an online form and the link will be sent out sometime in March. The form requires members to enter their 2020 BRC number (which will not be the same as the 2019 number) so bookings can only be taken from paid up HVRC members. So, please make sure you have paid your subs and have your new membership number so you can quickly reserve your place at camp – places are limited to 42 this year!
MEMBERSHIP SUBSCRIPTIONS
All memberships fall due at the beginning of January. Just a reminder that all clinics are for members only and memberships need to be paid before riders can attend clinics or book the arena in 2020. The online or downloadable membership form can be found here. Membership fees for 2020 will remain the same (despite a BRC fee increase) at £27 senior, £20 junior and £42 family (for 2 family members with additional family members an additional £15).
BRC COMPETITION DATES 2020

BRC NEW 2020 FLU VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS
