And the new BD Chairman is..........................

[DressageChick]

Jennie Loriston-Clarke

No surprise there then.

Apparently only 12% of members voted , which is quite pitiful

 

[CSYMolly]

I was one of them, but didn't vote for her! They are both good candidates though just thought Dane might have some great new ideas

 

[crabbymare]

Thats good news, I was one of the 12% and I know of a few others who are also just normal riders, so it does not say much for the rest of the membership.

 

[Imonone]

I voted too.....but again not for her! Its amazing that the membership is growing so much but hardly anyone cared enough to vote.

I voted for Dane Rawlins - I think he would have brought more new and dynamic ideas into the sport, but Jennie is a fab leader and great horsewoman and very popular with the 'old faithful'. I've watched her teach and is fantastic.

 

[Taboo1968]

I voted but not for JLC!!! (Sorry no offence to her- but thought DR would have pushed things forward more!)

 

[Tempi]

Damn, to say im dissappointed is an under statement - Dane wouldve done SO much for BD. Jennie is great (dont get me wrong) but i just dont think shes going to take BD forwards into the next centuary like Dane wouldve done.

I voted for DR as well. Agree with what other say - JLC was my heroine and I looked up to her all the time but I do think DR would have dragged BD into the 21st Century.
