After over forty years an an affiliated British Riding Club, it was with much regret the members decided at the AGM to disband Ards Riding Club. A declining membership coupled with increasing affiliation and insurance costs make it no longer financially practical to continue. It was not a decision taken lightly but no viable alternative was forthcoming.

It was agreed that the existing Committee would administer the winding up of the Club. The Club's equipment will be sold at auction and the proceeds divided between charities to be proposed by members once the we know the amount available for distribution.

Thank you all for your support of myself and the Committee over the years and especially at this time.

Our Annual General Meeting is will be held on Wednesday, 23rd September 2015 at 7.30 in Roma's Restaurant, Regent Street Newtwonards. As in past years, a warm invitation is extended to all members, their families and friends.

As you know, last year we had a lengthly discussion in relation to the future of the Club at the end of which it was decided to carry on for a further year. Sadly nothing much has changed and we need to once again address this issue. Please make a special effort to attend as if the Club is to continue your support is vital.

Most of the Committee is standing down this year and in the event of being unable to elect a Committee of at least ten members, the AGM will become an EGM to decide where we go from here.
