Dear members,



Your president and Vice president have been planning an awards evening in light of the official awards being canceled, there will be literal rosettes and pdf certificate prizes delivered via a virtual meeting in June. The rest of the committee will be meeting soon to finalize the finer details.



For the time being we need your help to decide who gets the awards please complete the following TWO Typeforms one for certificates and one for Rosette awards:



Certificate awards: https://uoepolo.typeform.com/to/SKL5t7



Rosette awards: https://uoepolo.typeform.com/to/NN2unV



Voting closes on the 11th may so you have a week to get your votes in!



Also in light of the possibility that we may not be able to meet again in person and to celebrate your commitment to the club this year we are also proposing the opportunity to purchase a rosette to mark this and all the fun and achievements we have had as a club this year. If you would be interested in having one of these rosette please vote on the poll on our Instagram story go to our page



Based on interest we will then organize the order for these, the cost will be £2.50 with 75p of this going to our chosen charity "Chigwell Riding Trust" and 75p of this going towards funds for the club next year.



Hopefully this feels you with some joy at this difficult time.



Best wishes



Maria and Sarah
