Discussions and Plans are underway with a view to introduce a monthly
(April - October 2011) Show to be held near Junc.7 of M6 between Birmingham and Walsall, West Midlands, exclusively for Arabian/Anglo Arabian/Part Bred Arabs ponies and horses
The theme of the show will be based upon versatility and hopefully will encourage more owners to compete in dressage, show jumping and cross country and the competition.....all of which should prove a great fun/schooling day as heights of fences will be at novice level
In Hand classes will also be scheduled for youngstock and senior exhibits
Winning points will be accrued towards the final Championship Show at
the end of the Season
This post to `feel the waters` to see if A/Liners would be interested in such a monthly competition???.......maybe an oak will grow!!

Thats great, will def need some willing hands and hopefully offers of sponsorship will be greatly appreciated
Will raise a draft schedule of classes, at moment working on a suitable Logo.
Can only hope this show will take off like my British National Foal Of The Year, now in it`s eigth year and gaining momentum, year on year

Brilliant idea Babs, probably too far for us to come on a regular basis from kent but maybe occasionaly. It may also inspire others to run similar events in other regions!

Babs....
Do the horses have to be registered to enter?
I have a friend with a PB (1/4 arab ) but I dont think she is regiestered.
Thanks
Kim
Edited to add: My friends mare is registered.... and I think she has some Rose Aboud in there somewhere....! So fingers crossed she'll be coming along too. |

Would love to do dressage against other arabs! May even have started getting back into jumping by then
Only addition I'd make to the schedule is veteran ridden if possible 
Are you considering an end of season champs day or points system to encourage regular attendance? |

| Reading this in conjunction with the Good Old Days thread, it would be brilliant if this show takes off and provides the sort of fun day out we used to enjoy. I can't run or ride any more but might be up for Concours d'Elegance as per Haydock! Best of luck with it, Babs. |
