My aim is to keep WES Area 6 members informed of latest news and events around the area. If you have anything you would like to see here just email Sarah. If you are here because you are trying to find about western riding in the area please feel free to make contact with us and we will try to help.
The details, including the menu, have been added to the Events page.
Well done to all Area 6 members who competed at the National show over the August Bank Holiday weekend and took home their fair share of the ribbons. Special thanks to Christine Grieve for being the only Freestyle Reining competitor this year. Unfortunately Area 6 did not have a team for the Versatility Challenge this year, partly because of some confusion over the rules. We will get it sorted out for 2011 and we'll be back!
The Annual General Meeting for Area 6 will be held on Sat 16 October at the Talbot Inn, Knightwick, Worcs. WR6 5PH (10.30 am for coffee).
Further details will follow. All members welcome!
I have received the following request from John and Marilyn Roslanowski:
If anyone has the 2008 show results, in particular: Solihull, Markfield, Tushingham, Hartpury & Champs. would you please contact us on 01562 66353 or email. mlroslanowski@tiscali.co.uk Many thanks.
There is a new album on the photo page with various photos from the Hartpury weekend.
Many competitors have been in contact with Bren to thank the show team and to say how much they enjoyed the show, thanks to everyone for the feedback. We are very grateful to all of our sponsors and to our hardworking showteam and helpers.
Kempley Catering did a splendid job with the food on the Saturday evening and we had some great raffle prizes.
The weather was pretty kind to us again, OK so there were a few "hat moments" especially on the Sunday but it was lovely to be out in the sunshine.

WES Chairman - David Brindley
Due to the volume to requests that I am currently receiving, please note that I have made the decision not to advertise non-WES events on this website. In the past I have included events which may have been of interest to WES members but I have reviewed this policy as the website is intended as a Members site rather than a general western site.
Is there anyone out there who would be prepared to organise some events in and around their local area? No previous experience is necessary but you do need to be a current member of W.E.S. If you would like to know more please contact either Nigel or Brenda
Thanks to Julie Marshall for recently taking on Camarthenshire.
Each month the WES Membership Secretary sends an up to date list of members to all Area Reps. Following discussions at our recent Area 6 AGM the list is now being forwarded on to County Reps so that they will know how many are in their areas. If you would like to make contact with other members in your area please contact your nearest County Rep.
Do we ever stop talking about the weather? Well no, not really so we now have an up to date 24 hour forecast available for you. Just click on the logo
