Happy Christmas to you all and your families (and of course your four-legged friends).
Here is your December update... as always there is a LOT going on. Below is just a small selection, please keep an eye on WBRC WebCollect for the full list of events and join the WBRC Facebook for lots of updates and news.
We hope you have all had a great year with WBRC! Just a reminder that it's time to renew your membership for 2018. It can be renewed on WebCollect and is due for renewal by the 1st January. It's a great idea to get this done early as you can only attend any clinics or competitions in 2018 once you have renewed. It's a bargain at £25... :-) Please note that if you haven't previously renewed membership or joined via WebCollect you will need to "join" on WebCollect rather than renew.
Good luck to all our competitors at the Intermediate Dressage qualifier... we have a whopping five teams there on Sunday and many individuals! Good luck and stay warm!
