Welcome to the NCPA
News Update
Dear Members
My time as Chairman of the NCPA is fast coming to its close, the AGM at the Deanwater Hotel, Woodford, Stockport, Cheshire on March 16th is the date for the handover to Geoff Mottram. I'm sure Geoff will do an excellent job of taking the NCPA forward into the next decade and I'd also like to thank the Officers, and in particular Janet, for all their help over the last few years.
At the AGM we will also be presenting the Points Award winners with their Rosettes and the Arthur Smith Breeders Award winners with their Trophies, all this followed by a hot supper and finishing with our Guest Speaker, the well known commentator Mr. Simon Richardson, please contact Janet for tickets if you're intending to attend, its a great chance to catch up with everyone without having a pony or horse to sort out!
The Open Show Schedule is being posted out in the next couple of weeks to 2010 members and last years competitors. Re-joining members will be posted one out with their new Membership cards over the following month, and it will also be available to download as usual from this website.Hope as many of you as possible will be able to come, we've got exciting new classes and Uttoxeter is such a lovely venue and very convenient for many members.
Plans are coming together for this years Pony of the Year at Warren Farm, we're starting on Saturday lunchtime with some fun classes for everyone to be able to enter, even non-equines!! these will be entries on the day, although a schedule will come out with the POY schedule, later in the year, to enable you to decide what classes you'd like to do, more info in the next up-date!
Finally I'd just like to say thankyou to all NCPA members for their kind words and support and look forward to seeing many of you over the coming months.
Best wishes
Pam Ashton
