Rally Protocol for All members

Rally Protocol

Plan ahead, book into rallies in good time and return Booking form by Deadline Date on form, enter the dates in your diary.
The Programme for each holiday is sent to you at least three weeks before the holidays, so you have planty of time to decide and book the rallies you want and get the form and fee to your Ride Leader
Return your booking form with the appropriate fee, either by cheques or Rally Tokens ( These can be purchased from the secretary Fran Lockyer £2.50 or £5 Tokens available) to your Ride Leader by the date requested. Cheques should be made payable to Wilton Hunt Branch of the Pony Club. Please send separate cheques for each ride. We no longer accept one cheque for the Holidays.
If you have to withdraw from a rally let your Ride Leader know as soon as possible as there might be a waiting list. A refund cannot be guaranteed as a commitment to cost will have been made.
REMEMBER to ring your Ride Leader for times 2 Days before your Rally for Times and any changes that might have occured.
Let you ride Leader know when you book if you are sharing transport as this might affect the planning of groups.

Arrive in good time so that you are ready to ride at the start of your session.
Make sure your Ride Leader knows you have arrived, and find out if there have been any changes etc.. to the session.
At the end of your rally please remember to thank your instructor and to thank you ride leader before you leave.
Take to all rallies the necessary equipment for removing droppings, straw etc from parking areas before you leave. Many people give freely of their venue but do not appreciate having to clear up behind you after you have gone.

We are keen to maintain these standards; you risk being turned away from rallies if you are not correctly dressed.
