If you're coming to the 19/20th April event and don't fancy a ball, don't worry; the clubhouse will be open as normal, and we're trying to keep the marquee separated from the horsebox park to keep any noise down.

Volunteers' lunch

Sunday 23rd March 2008 Ashfields This lunch is to say thank you to everyone who's helped us at events in the past and also to encourage newcomers to join the squad of friends and helpers. We couldn't hold driving trials without volunteers! Free for helpers, past, present and future, and also for drivers who bring helpers to the lunch. Please bring your friends, family and neighbours who are interested in helping us this season.
There will be a short talk about horse driving trials and our season's events, the chance to ask questions and to find friends old and new.

More details on this and training days, see Early-bird entry forms
