BD National Convention

[CSYMolly]

Anyone going? Any ideas on ticket prices? Racking my brains for a birthday present for a friend and thought that might be nice, bit of a drive but should be worth it. Looked on BD website but doesn't actually tell you.
Failing that anyone know of any good lecture/demo's coming up that I can easily get to from Essex?
Thanks
Clare

Its £60 for members, £70 for non members for the two days. You have to send a cheque to BD with stamped addressed envelope I think.

The East Anglian Dressage Group are having Peter Storr come to Towerlands on December 2nd which is to replace the one cancelled earlier this year at Manor Farm.
(A little bird tells me they are having Carl Hester next year......so watch this space!)

Their website is always out of date but the contact details are probably the same.

I think Carl Hester is coming to Frogpool Manor in Kent soon but not sure of dates, in fact it might already have happened!! Check their website, www.frogpoolmanor.co.uk (something like that if that doesn't work!).

Oh cool thanks for that, was looking on Towerlands website this morning but couldn't find anything. Will do some research now, want to get her something thoughtful but unfortunately can't afford too much.

Who is taking the National Convention this year? Is it at Addington again?

Anky Van Grunsen and Sjeff Jansen are taking the convention this year and it is at Addington. I believe she is bringing a couple of her own horses as well as teaching the selected UK riders.

Should be interesting then - I thought Ulla Salzgaber was excellent the year before last and Beatriz Ferrer-Salat was not as good last year but it was interesting watching her ride.
