Dear Members,

Sunday 2nd March 2025, our Club ran our annual EA Dressage Jackpot at Werribee Park. 

​

The event was a success for riders and our club.  Perfect weather to boot.  During the day many riders and attendees took the time to pop in and thank everyone for providing a great competition with a calm and friendly environment.  

These events rely heavily on the support from many.  We were fortunate to have the help of judges, officials, volunteers and spectators to provide a great event for competitors. 

 

Thank you to everyone who helped, whether that be baking yummy cakes, slices and muffins for judges and volunteers, gear checking, poo patrol, marshalling, scribing or presenting prizes.  These events cannot run by themselves.

​

It’s always been the club’s mission to give back to its members, which I believe we do well.  But it can’t be left to the same people doing it all the time, this is just not sustainable.   So please members, the next time you see a shout out for help, answer the call.

We welcomed a new major sponsor ‘Munro Equine and Canine Health' who supported our event financially and with amazing products to circulate with our winners.  Mary and Rob Hanna with their massive generosity sponsored the children's class'.  Off the Track for sponsoring the winners and placegetters in the Preliminary and Novice.  These are amazing and generous contributions to our event, we are so grateful for their kind donations.  Barastoc who were so generous in supporting our event with donating multiple bags of horse feed.  Horse Bit Emporium jumped on board also by providing exquisite bralettes, vouchers and saddle pads - divine.   Sue Jeffers of Equine Images Vic a club favourite who yet again offered a voucher for some special winners, as well as another photographer guru Kate Sheffield who was with us on the day making great memories for many of the riders and also donating photography vouchers.  CEVA animal health, provided beautiful merchandise and information brochures.  If you have the opportunity, please thank these businesses for their support of our Club.

Congratulations to Fiona McDonald-Crowley on winning the MRDC club patron prize for the highest percentage achieved by a club member on the day.

Until then, happy riding.
