For some of you it will mean renewed closures and uncertainties. Hopefully this will be a limited blot on the landscape and that you will be able to get up and running again soon. For others it is business as usual, which is why I thought I would just confirm the RDA NSW Mounted Games Day at SIEC on Friday 8<sup>th</sup> October in conjunction with the traditional Gymkhana and Dressage Championship weekend. We are working closely with the Dressage Committee and entry and information forms will be sent out through them.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>As for the Regional Mounted Games Days!! We hope you are enjoying getting back into the practising the games which will be as previous – ie Crazy Eight, Snakes and Ladders, Twist and Turn, and Bending. These can all be found in the RAM under COA-08 Sept 2017, along with the RDA NSW Mounted Games guidelines for running the day for those of you who may be unfamiliar with this event. A sample Score (Time) sheet is also included.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>At this moment we still do not know what will be happening re the Mounted Games at the Royal Easter Show in 2022 but we are keeping our fingers crossed for an invitation to attend. Therefore, times for your top 4 riders in each riding level will need to be returned to the Committee by Friday 29<sup>th</sup> October so they may be considered for inclusion should the RES go ahead. We would also ask that ‘ Riders Ability to Attend ‘ be provided as well. We understand that this may alter dependent on more solid dates should inclusion at the RES occur.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>We will keep you up to date with any further information regarding the SIEC Mounted Games Day, as well as for the future of the RDA NSW Mounted Games day at the Sydney Royal Easter Show.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Enjoy the games!!!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Bradley Hand ITC"'>Kirsty<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Kirsty Hardman<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Interim Chairperson<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>RDA NSW Mounted Games Committee<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
