Later this month active members, parents, and leaders will receive directions on how to set up their log in information with the new site. Until then, your Username and Password with the current site will work.

About the Presenter
Emma Ford originated from North Devon England and was brought up in the hunt field with her dad as Master of the Foxhounds. Emma was raised surrounded by horses. She grew up in the Pony Club system, receiving her “B” designation and culminating with jumping at the Horse of the Year Show in 1991. After completing her Bachelor of Science at the University of Wales she moved to the United States to follow her passion with horses. After managing Adrienne Iorio’s advanced event horses for seven years in Boston Massachusetts, she moved on to manage Phillip Dutton’s barn in West Grove Pennsylvania. She has groomed at almost every 4-star event in the world, and has been a member of the U.S. Eventing Team at multiple Olympic, World, and Pan American Games. Throughout the years, in addition to eventing, Emma has had the opportunity to turn horses out at many upper level show-jumping competitions including the Winter Equestrian Festival in Wellington Florida as well as work for a promising young dressage rider at many upper level dressage shows.

- New Chief Horse Management application is now on the website. For your convenience the application is now a fillable pdf!
- REGIONS please support and encourage your RIC and HMO to attend the Annual Meeting in Florida. There is an ALL DAY workshop just for them to learn and gain material and information for your region and to connect and share ideas and success stories with other RICs and HMOs across the country.
- New Chart of Learning is coming for 2016 with a slight change for the Traditional (Eventing) C-2. They will be allowed to go directly to the Show Jumping Specialty C-3 which is a diagonal move (of course either before or after their H-B as usual). More detail will be shared at the Annual Meeting.
- Remember that Clubs/Centers are to offer certifications (D-1 to C-2 levels) at least twice a year and more frequently as may be needed. It is very important that we get new members engaged in the Pony Club program so they can experience all the opportunities that are available.
- New H-B Cards will be available in January 2016 to reflect the revised H-B Standards. These Standards are revised every three years.
- New HM Handbook Rules for Rallies will be available by Annual Meeting.
- The Chief Horse Management Judge list has been updated. For all Qualifying Rallies a Chief from this list must be used.
