Heads up - ESNZ are putting their rego fees up on Monday ...

We would like to thank you for your continued membership with Equestrian Sports New Zealand, and we appreciate your involvement in our wonderful sport.

As we prepare to begin the 2026/27 equestrian season, please be advised that our membership and levies will increase from 9am Monday 17 August. We regret having to do this, but like most sports and businesses, our costs across the board have gone up and we are all having to manage and adapt.

A variety of increases have been applied across our membership range and this has included:
ESNZ Horse & Human Membership -=https://www.nzequestrian.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/Price-list-2026-27.pdf

Three time slots have opened up for this Saturday if you want to come and have a play in an arena - 1pm, 1.20pm and 2pm. Simply email me - first in gets the slot!! [email protected]

With our AGM tonight at the clubrooms starting 6:30pm, we need members to come along as it is your club and the committee needs to know how you would like your club run. Currently our President Steph, Anne our finance officer, Angela our area delegate, Marjolein, Elaine, Carolynn, Vanessa our secretary, Bella and Betty are the riders on the committee. With the loss of the organisation that sets up and takes our arenas down for our shows, we need members to step up and help more to keep our show costs down. Other jobs like club room cleaning, catering etc also need members to do some work otherwise we will have to pay and with dropping entry numbers at events we could easily start to run at a loss.

PLEASE come along and join the committee so we know the direction of how you want the club to grow and continue to deliver events you want and how they are run. Our meetings are done online and rarely go over 1.5 hours once a month on a Tuesday. As a member, people need to step up and help our club grow. With the council making changes to our grounds, and surrounding land being developed, we need to prove to council we deserve to have use of the sports grounds. So come along with your ideas and join in. Bring a plate and share your ideas and put some thought into how you can step up to make this a top club that more people want to join!

Trophies are ready for the prizegiving tonight, are you?? Looking forward to seeing our AMDG members (young and young at heart) for our AGM and Prizegiving starting 6.30pm at our clubrooms Clevedon A&P Showgrounds

Remember our AGM & prizegiving is on Monday 3 August at AMDG clubrooms 6.30pm - be part of the conversation that will guide our club going forward, your voice matters!
