Congratulations to Jennifer Gilbertson—Australia’s first
30,000 + kilometre endurance rider.
This is an absolutely fantastic achievement. I remember
when Jennifer first entered the sport, back in the early
1990s. We met when we were both doing our TPR course
at the East Kurrajong Hall.
From there Jennifer has gone on to become one of
Australia’s best known and most loved endurance riders.
Congratulations must also go to Graeme [GG], Jennifer’s husband. As every
endurance rider knows, a good strapper is worth his or her weight in gold!
Congratulations to both of them. Ed

President’s Report
President’s Report
This riding season is well under way with eight event
weekends completed and a further twenty one
scheduled. Interest and tempo is growing with the
State Championships coming up with the Kilkavan
Quilty shortly thereafter.
Our thanks go to the Tamworth and District Endurance
Club for hosting the State Championships at Manilla
this year; entrants are in for a great weekend as this
group always puts on an enjoyable, interesting event.
This weekend also offers an opportunity to qualify for
the Quilty three weeks later.
The SMC is calling for nominations for the NSWERA
Quilty teams, please get your nomination in for the
opportunity to represent your state – not to mention the
uniform provided from the great new range of clothing
merchandise. We are also calling for a team
coordinator for the event so if you are going to be there
with a few free hours please submit an EOI.
Good luck to all riders involved in these two great events and thank you to the organizers, officials,
and volunteers that make these events possible.
Project TQ15 to organise the running of the 50th Tom Quilty back home where it began in 2015 is
under way with the subcommittee restructuring from feasibility and proposal focus to a project
management and delivery team which is larger and wider based than the original team. We wish
Neil and the team good luck for the task ahead.
On the administrative front the Committee members are settling into their portfolio responsibilities;
we have had a change of membership with Gay Bonham stepping down and being replaced by
Gertraud Norton from the reserves, welcome Gertraud.
We thank Gay for her many years of service; her work ethic, and wealth of talent and experience
will be missed.
Cheers, Tom

Track Preservation Report
National Parks trails to be opened to horses – progress report
Regional workplans and budgets for horse riding initiatives are currently being finalised by
NPWS. Meanwhile we have seen the first real horse riding improvement after a year of words
and promises. A new gate has been
installed at Scheyville National Park in Sydney's north-west, finally resolving the problem of access to the horse float parking area on Scheyville Road. The old gate was narrow, with a tree in
exactly the wrong spot, and nowhere to pull off the road while you opened/closed the gate. The
new gate is recessed, wider and clear of trees.
Draft Plans of Management
All National Parks & Wildlife Service Plans of Management, both draft and finalised, can be
viewed at the NPWS website at http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/parkmanagement/
ParkAndFireManagementPlansByCategory.htm
Plans of management define if and where you are allowed to ride in a park.
You can make submissions by post, email or directly from the website. A submission is simply
your comments on the plan of management, whether agreeing or disagreeing with what is being proposed.
Another two bad ones this time around. It is almost as though we are having so much success
in some areas, they are trying to offset it by excluding us from others!
Tabbimoble Swamp Nature Reserve – south-west of Evans Head. Horse riding not permitted.
Submissions close 17 June 2013.
Bargo River State Conservation Area – near Yerrinbool. Horse riding not permitted. There is
a strong case for us to get this changed, as Bargo SCA across the road permits horse riding
and there is a trail through Bargo River SCA which connects it to public land on the other side.
Sydney's south-west is particularly limited in its riding opportunities because of the large extent
of catchment areas, which do not impact this park. Submissions close 24 June 2013.

South Coast Zone Report
The year has started slowly for the South Coast Zone. Our AGM was held in February and the
following people have been elected to the Zone;
President – Gary Tweedie
Vice president – Les Robinson
Secretary – Alan Marshall
Treasurer – Rowena Robinson
Zone delegate – Gary Tweedie.
Point score – Jenny Shepherd
Rides for 2013 will be Wingello, Currawan, Sussex Inlet and Sassafras with Sassafras being the
South Coast Zone Championships.
Our first ride for the year was to be the Sassafras Training ride but due to weather event that
weekend it had to be cancelled at the last minute. Alan is endeavouring to find another date to
hold the training ride.
Whilst we still have several rides in the area we have lost a few rides mainly due to the loss of ride
bases and the committees to run them.
As is the case in other areas for the State we are witnessing a decline in membership and a decline in participation at some of our South Coast rides. Some rides have become unviable to run
with the loss or suitable ride bases, the escalating costs of running a ride and poor participation
numbers. The Zone is lucky to still have several generous sponsors that support us giving some
rides the hope of continuing.
On a brighter note, the small committee is keen to keep the Zone running and we will be looking at
how we can invigorate the South Coast area.
Finally, I must thank Belinda Hopley for representing the Zone at SMC last year, Belinda kept the
membership well informed on the goings on at SMC level. I also wish thank our outgoing newsletter editor, Bernie La France. Bernie did a terrific job for many years compiling and producing the
south coast zone newsletter. I’m sure it will be missed by our members.
Have Fun and a great Endurance year

HORSELY PARK PROMOTIONAL ENDURANCE RIDE - SATURDAY 9TH MARCH 2013
Article submitted by Eileen McILwain
Endurance riding is a growing sport in Australia, with equestrians from a variety of disciplines
getting bitten by the endurance bug. Exploring some of the most beautiful country Australia has to
offer on horseback while mingling with a bunch of like-minded people is certainly appealing!
There’s a lot more to endurance than just riding really, really far. Top riders spend weeks
preparing their horses in the lead up to an event, evaluating recovery rates after training sessions
and calculating the nutritional content of feed rations to ensure their horse is in peak physical
condition. Successfully completing an endurance ride takes just as much skill as tackling a cross
country course or executing the perfect dressage test.
When people think of endurance the image that springs to mind is a proud Arabian, nostrils flared
and tail streaming behind them like a banner. But Australian Stock Horses, Standardbreds,
Appaloosas and athletic equines from many different breeds are also competing at top level. Most
people starting out simply use whatever horse they have. The Australian Endurance Riders
Association (AERA) is big on encouraging newcomers to the sport and many events offer shorter
distances such as 10km Introductory Rides and 20km Social Rides. Horses in regular work are
usually able to complete a 20km Social Ride without any trouble. These shorter distances give
both horse and rider the opportunity to see what endurance is all about in a fun, friendly
environment.
One such event was the Horsely Park Training Ride which was held at Sydney International
Equestrian Centre (SIEC) on Saturday the 9th of March. The main event was a 20km Social Ride
with the option to elevate to a 40km Training Ride. The ride was organised by Charlie Gauci, one
of the many volunteers for Zone 1 Endurance Riders Inc. A total of 94 riders seized the opportunity
Below: Ivy Sullivan and Destiny Springs Red Rocket with Karen Mitchell and Bailey

NSW Endurance News May—June Page No. 7
to ride through the picturesque cross country course
and surrounding West Sydney Parklands and Calmsley
Hill City Farm.
The grass dressage arena was transformed into an
endurance hub with organisers, vets and competitors
milling around. After filling out the entry forms, riders
were asked to present their horse for the pre-ride
veterinary examination. Each horse is assessed on
heart rate, metabolics and soundness to ensure they
are fit to begin the ride. Animal welfare is a top priority
at every event. The motto of endurance is “to complete
is to win” and riders focus on their horse’s wellbeing
rather than being first across the line. Once the vets
gave the thumbs up, the riders proceeded to the starting
line.

It was a beautiful autumn day with glorious sunshine
and clear skies. The ride began with an exhilarating lap
around the race track, then it was off to the cross
country course. It was incredible to ride past the
enormous Olympic jumps – some of them were the size
of cars! Volunteers manned the various checkpoints,
giving directions and keeping track of each rider’s
progress. Large buckets of water were positioned at
regular intervals around the course to give horses the
opportunity to drink. Keeping your horse hydrated is a
crucial part of endurance, but some equines are less
cooperative than others. As the saying goes: you can
lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink!
The temperature began to climb and so did the
horses as they continued into the hilly country
surrounding SIEC. Cresting the first hill, riders
were treated to a spectacular view of the plains
stretching all the way to the horizon. Competitors
then made their way across the undulating
parklands before threading their way through the
bush. At the end of the first 20kms riders could
decide to finish or elevate to the 40km Training
Ride. Of the 94 starters, 29 riders went on to
successfully do 40kms, while 45 riders were
content to call it a day after 20kms. Not everyone
made it through however, with 8 riders choosing
to withdraw even though their horses passed the
veterinary examination. There were a total of 12
“vet outs” with 10 horses vetting out on heart rate,
1 horse vetting out on metabolics and 1 horse
vetting out lame. The overall completion rate was
78% which is an excellent result.
Of course, events like this are only possible with
the help of volunteers and sponsors. The ride was
generously supported by the NSW Endurance
Riders Association (NSWERA), the Arabian Horse
Society of Australia (AHSA), Zone One

Bumbaldry Training weekend
Lachlan Endurance Riders Club - LERC had the chance to introduce their new riding location in
the district of Bumbaldry on the weekend of 16/17 March 2013.
Both days offered a 20km and 40km ride, taking in the beautiful country side that Bumbaldry has
to offer. Eighty two riders set off on Saturday enjoying the afternoon sun, Sunday followed with 57
riders, making the most of the cooler temperatures of the morning, some of these riders had
already ridden on Saturday but wanted or needed more.
The weekend welcomed a lot of new faces to the sport of endurance riding, with riders enjoying
the 20km social ride, some even stepping up to try the 40km event, with a great completion rate
and a lot of fun on both trails and in camp. We hope these new faces now become familiar on the
endurance trails.
Anyone new to the sport or local whom would like to become a member of our club; can contact
any of us committee members and we can pass on information about our meetings, riding
weekends, LERC rides etc. Send any enquiries to Helen at [email protected].
Our website has some brilliant information also www.lerc.com.
Those who have enjoyed an endurance ride or two in the past, travelled from near and far to make
use of a brilliant weekend to train their up and coming mounts. Both days were considered highly
educational for young horses and great contributor to horse and rider fitness for the start of the
year. Congratulations to riders who completed and commiserations to those who did not.
We would like to take this opportunity to say thanks to the property owners in Bumbaldry who
allowed us to access their property and water. Without their wonderful support this ride would not
have been possible.
A massive thank you also to our sponsors.
Lachlan Fertilisers Cowra.
Bunnings Warehouse Cowra.
Geronimo Farm Equipment.
Kintamani Arabians Cowra,
Computers Inc Cowra.
Tom and Louise McCormack.
Massive thanks to Su Mackay for the use of her paddock to support and home our ride base.
Thanks also to Back Creek Metal Signs who hand made our 4 encouragement awards which were
given both days, they were greatly appreciated and a brilliant design.
Our committee has received some wonderful feedback in regards to our weekend at Bumbaldry
and hope that we will see the same friendly faces, together with their friends, in future at one of our
LERC weekends.
Hopefully after our next meeting we can cement a date for an annual ride at Bumbaldry. We hope
to then run 20/40/80km events.
On behalf of LERC I would like to take the opportunity to say thanks to everyone who made this
weekend possible. In the future we will be seeking sponsorship and help by way of volunteers in
support of our ‘not for profit’ organisation. Our sport relies heavily on community help, we in turn
try to support our local community.

Williams River Review
The Williams Valley Endurance Ride was held on the weekend of the 16th and 17th of March. I
must say, as with all rides and being on an organising committee it was hectic, but such a
wonderful weekend for the first 80km event for the NSW calendar in 2013. It was lovely to see so
many old faces and lots of new comers to our sport.
To the many people who contributed to our ride by way of sponsorship or who helped out as
volunteers, there are too many to list individually - THANK YOU ALL!!
Thank you to all our checkpoint and gate sitters, the office crew and time keepers.
Emily Streckfuss and her lovely team of vets did a superb job, with Sean Pollard our Chief Steward
heading up our TPR’s: Steve Broadbent, Kim Hagon, Dean Walkom and Lynn Dillon. To the
extended Dillon family - Brad, Lynn, Leo, Luke, Rachel and Ben; without you all we would not have
a ride, so thank you.
Gil Stevenson helped create our new course and was responsible for implementing the spring
loaded gates - as a rider (I also rode the 40km) thanks, it saved me getting off my horse many
times - great idea!
Our local Horse Welfare group ran the canteen for the weekend, lovely food; the butter chicken on
Saturday night was superb.
Thanks to Glen Hewitt for working the entire weekend in either the ride office or time keeping, you
are wonderful.
A huge pat on the back must go to Sue Walkom for organising all the computer work for the ride
and post ride reports. As this was the first 80km ride in NSW to use the new computer program,
and Sues first solo attempt at being the computer guru on the day of the ride it was a challenging
task that was met with great determination and we managed to get through it by the end.
NSW Endurance News May—June 2013 Page No. 16
The committee would also
like to make special mention
to Jessica Taylor (Bonham)
for being in constant
telephone contact with us
over the weekend to help
trouble shoot the few
computer issues we faced –
Jess, you are a star!
The Flat Tops Rural Fire
Brigade helped cart water
around the course over the
weekend and the Williams
Valley Endurance Riders
Club is happy to be able to
contribute a nice donation to
help support this small local
unit as a result of our ride.
OK, to the ride……we
opened up the ride base from
Friday lunch time, with lots of
people taking advantage and
arriving early. With plenty of
shade trees and open spaces
to park and set up camp it
was a relaxing way to get the
weekend started.
Gil and Brad created a
fantastic course this year with
some new properties to ride
through and very minimal tar,
only about 4km in total I
think.
The views were beautiful and
the weather was kind to us
on the day which was a
bonus. We had some lovely rain the weeks leading up to the ride which helped to soften tracks
and ensure plenty of natural water around the course.
We had 123 riders and horses participate in the weekend, with 55 entries in the 80km; 6 Junior, 13
Lightweight, 22 Middleweight and 14 Heavyweight.
We were fortunate to have generous sponsorship and had Rugs for 1st place and Best Conditioned
showcasing the sponsor’s names and our bold black and orange club logo. These looked fantastic
and I am sure we will see these horses proudly wearing their rugs at coming rides.
Best Condition results are as follows.
Junior - Macquarie Park Shafeeq, ridden by Georgia Curry
Light Weight - Kerewong Shelfyre ridden by Anne Hills
Middle Weight - TTH Headliner ridden by Thomas Herman
Heavy Weight - Halimas Efdikam ridden by Gary Pevy
There were 44 riders in the 40km event with many experienced horse and rider combinations
taking advantage of an early ride in the calendar and a lovely new course to get their horses ready
for the 2013 season riding season, along with many new faces and some junior riders attempting
their first 40km training ride. It was great to see lots of families out riding together this year. Caps
or trophies were handed out as successful completion prizes and I too was fortunate to have a
NSW Endurance News May—June Page No. 17
successful completion on a new young mare and have a lovely cap to show for our efforts at the
ride.
24 were entered in the 20km social ride. It was fantastic to see so many local riders come along
and support the ride and enjoy the atmosphere of an Endurance Event. Many enjoyed the
course and are keen to step up to the 40km next year so we are happy to help nurture these
NSW Endurance News May—June 2013 Page No. 18
new comers along to grow
our members. Thanks to

Cedar Ridge played host to 224 horses over the Easter long weekend, many travelled great
distances to attend including competitors from South Australia, Victoria, Queensland & Tasmania
to enjoy the hospitality of the Freeman family. The carnival of events catered for every level of
experience, from the 20km social rides for our new members, to the FEI 120km** for our
international competitors. A number of riders chose to take advantage of the various events run
over multiple days.
A distinguished veterinary panel was lead by Australia's most accomplished international equine
veterinarian Brian Sheahan head of the veterinarian commission in Switzerland. Robyn Mather
with her international experience was the Treatment Vet for the weekend, Ilona Hudson, Monika
Baffy and Amanda Parry (Foreign Veterinarian) rounded out the team.
The Ground Jury consisted of our
veteran endurance members who
volunteered their time and
expertise.
The Presidents of the Ground Jury

Spratt, the Chief Stewards were
Barbara McDonald and Tom
McCormack and the Technical
Delegate was Denise Trollope.

generous with their sponsorship for the
events.
Sunday emerged much cooler for the 2nd
and final day of the 160km event which
was won by Windradyne Centrefold ridden
by Roy Counsell.
The FEI 80km* winning horse was
Candynae ridden by Lauren Howson in a

time of 6.23 riding Kintamani Jaffah.
53 horses entered the 40km training rides.
Cherry Cummins winner of the lightweight
80km event on Saturday, was on foot
running beside her younger sister
Annabelle on the Sunday for the entire
40km to look after her on her first
endurance event.
The children also had a great
time with the Easter Egg Hunt
and one little boy was seen
struggling with his arms full of
eggs, so off came his gumboot
and in went all of the Easter
Eggs as he continued on.
The ride organisers wish to
extend their thanks for all of
the support.

Ride Preview Manilla Muster 240km
Pre-ride temperature logs are compulsory for this ride.
The third annual Manilla Muster 240km marathon ride

The ride comprises of three days riding 85kms on
Friday, 80kms on Saturday and 75kms on Sunday.
The first two days have “away” vet checks, with the first
day being on the beautiful property “Oakhampton” to
the north of Manilla. The second day located at another
beautiful property, “Carlool” to the west of Manilla.
These properties are very easy to access for support
crews and are only a short distance from town on a
sealed road. Early lunch will be available at both these
locations. Lunch is included in the entry fee for riders.
Strappers are invited to leave the ride base travelling to these properties once the riders have left
the showground each morning.
Marathon rules will apply with all riders leaving on the first day at 4.00am. Riders may leave at
any time between 4.00 am and 5.00 am on days two and three, keeping in mind riders must be
back to the base by 5.00pm. Rider may leave the away checkpoint once officials announce the
course is open after leg 1 each day. Meals will be available in the pavilion at the ride base each
night.
Buckles will be presented to all successful competitors and of course there will be some novelty
prizes still to be decided by our club president and Head Vet, Kym Hagon. A beautiful
handcrafted stock whip donated by Ken Frazer on a mounting plate donated by Paul & Ted
Taylor will be presented to fastest time. The Tailender award will again be sponsored by
Equitales Braided Horsehair Jewellery.
In conjunction with the marathon, there will be an 80km no frills ride. This ride will be held on
Sunday, travelling the same course as the final day of the marathon, with a 5km loop to make up
the distance to 80km. All riders in the 80km ride must leave the ride base at 4.00am.
The course traverses some very scenic country, mostly through private property with magnificent
views and is suitable for novice horses. Both vet checks for this ride will be at the Manilla show
ground ride base. Buckles will be presented
to successful competitors.
And just so we cater for everyone, there will
also be a 35km training ride which will leave
the ride base a little bit later and travel the
same leg as the final leg for the marathon
ride.

Mudgee
40th Anniversary Endurance Ride.
25TH & 26TH May 2013
Headlines from September 1972
“ 75 MILE ENDURANCE RIDE TO TEST HORSE & RIDER”
75 MILE RIDE WON IN FAST TIME BY T. ROHR
COMPETITORS HAD THE SPEED OF PEGASUS.
As Stan Stephens wrote:
“Of course they couldn’t see out the distance at that speed. They just couldn’t keep it up
we said, the pace would have to crack we said, But how wrong can you be?
They made it back to the saleyards in just 6 hrs & 4.5 mins”
So now to 2013 & the 40th Mudgee Ride, no longer 75 miles, no longer
tough & mountainous; Just a gentle 83 klms & so good for Novice
horses.
We have a great list of sponsors & some wonderful trophies, & expect the Ray Gooley
Memorial trophy for best managed horse will be the most sought after. We have a special
memorial buckle too!
Terry Rohr (winner of the first ride) will also be with us (I would like to have weathered the
years as well as Terry has!)
This year we have extra camping across the road, but please keep your camp as compact
as possible. The ride will muster in this area also, as happened last year, which keeps
everyone off the short length of tar.
The first leg of 40 klms is also the trainer. The 2nd leg is 43 klms.The first 10 klms of this
leg is also the social ride which then returns to base.
The Sunday start times are 6 am for the 83 klms & 7am for the 40 klm trainer. The social
ride will start at 1pm Saturday with vetting from 11am. Vetting for the 83 & 40 klms is from
1pm – 5pm.
Prenominations are appreciated by 5pm on 20th May. Please indicate if dinner is required
for $20. Ride fees : senior $90, Junior $55, Trainer $55 + day membership (if applicable)
Social $25 + day membership.

KUNDABUNG - 30th June 2013
(Dual affiliated NSW / QLD )
The Kundabung Ride Committee will be holding its 23rd ride on the weekend of 29th & 30th
June. The ride will again be conducted on the eastern side of the Pacific Highway, with the
ride base located at the Kundabung Hall in River Rd Kundabung. The Hall provides a
great venue with an inside canteen, good camping and flushing toilets!
The ride base is located adjacent to the Northern railway line and this is taken into
consideration at all times, with no problems encountered in previous years.
We have extended the camping area within the ride base and again have access to Ron &
Marilyn Urban’s paddock across the road for additional campsites. Firewood will be
provided but please bring your own (human) drinking water.
The usual canteen will be operating with great “take away” food and sit down meals in the
hall.
The track will be similar to the past two years, starting through private property for a
kilometre or so before travelling through the Maria State Forest and Maria National Park.
Almost the entire track is situated within the State Forest and National Park travelling
along great forest trails.
We are hoping to gain access to some additional tracks this year to enable more variety
between each leg. There are no big hills with a maximum elevation of only 90 metres
throughout the entire course, providing mostly flat going over forest trails which are
excellent under foot.
The ride is dual affiliated with Queensland and we are looking forward to seeing our
neighbouring Northern Rivers riders again this year.
80km, 40km (trainer) & 20km (social) rides will be conducted. Buckles are awarded for all
80km completions and there are best conditioned awards in all 4 divisions.
To get to the base, turn east off the Pacific Highway onto Kundabung Rd opposite the
(former) Kundabung Motel and follow the tar road for a short distance through the small
village of Kundabung, across the railway line to the Kundabung Hall. The highway will be
signposted from Friday afternoon.

Inaugural Cobark Endurance Ride
20 km
40-60 km
80 km
10 -11 August 2013
The Watagan Mountains Endurance Riders’ Club Inc invite you to our new ride location,
Cobark, half an hour’s drive west of Gloucester. Cobark is a rural community located in a
fertile valley bordered by the Barrington Tops, our slice of the high country; 3 hours north
of Sydney, 2 ¼ hours north of Newcastle and a 1 ½ hours west of Taree. Whilst the area
is renowned for steep hilly country, the ride will be run mainly over the gentle sloping parts
of the valley with the more rugged country providing a spectacular backdrop.
The course will be a mixture of dirt roads, paddocks and farm tracks and forest trails, with
a number of shallow river crossings. The rivers are a feature of the area, pristine, crystal
clear water with rock pools and cascades. The course will follow sections of the Cobark,
Barrington, Kerripit and Bowman Rivers. There are no bitumen roads.
An introductory ride of 20 km and an intermediate ride of 40 km, extendable to 60 km
(elevator) will be held along with the 80 km endurance ride on the Sunday.
Since the ride is 2 weeks before Shahzada, either the 40 – 60 km elevator or the 80 km
endurance ride will be an ideal leg up.
A full program of events with course descriptions, local area information, sponsor details
will be available on our website www.cobarkendurance.weebly.com. You can also stay up
to date with ride details, track and weather conditions and sponsors through our Facebook
page http://www.facebook.com/cobarkendurance.
Vetting is standard AERA with optional early present.
The ride base is at Camp Cobark http://www.camp-cobark.com.au/ – a horse riding
organisation.
Facilities include a level grassy paddock for camping beside the Cobark River and a large
shed, bunkhouse and undercover area for meetings and the canteen. Some flushing
toilets and showers with the usual toilets will be provided.
Camp Cobark is a working cattle farm - dogs are welcome, but must be kept tethered or
on a leash at all times.
Proceeds from the ride will benefit Gloucester High School, our local community school.

Vale Betty Wade
Many people in endurance would have met Betty Wade (Meg's mum) at some of the rides she went to
with the Castlebar Team. Without fail she would manage to charm them all with her interest in all that
was going on and with her warm, caring nature. Betty was always on for a chat and we would have
many people calling in to say hello to her whenever she was at a ride.
Within the Castlebar camp she was legendary for having all sorts of wonderful food tucked away in
containers that she'd bring out during the course of the ride as well as her healthy snacks. At the rides
Betty would be busy pottering around camp, getting meals ready for us, cleaning up afterwards and
always on hand with encouragement and positiveness. She also had a very keen sense of humour.
Betty was a very surprising person when you learnt about her background. She grew up to be an
exceptional theatre nurse in her home town of Broken Hill and had to fight a legal battle to be able to
leave the town and further her studies in Sydney. She nursed in Queensland in a rural area working
with many of the indigenous people. Unfortunately she caught tuberculosis and this illness ended her
career but not her joie de vivre for life.
Betty met her husband Bill and together they built up a very successful company and Betty became a
mum, took on looking after the cattle and farm and became a board member of the company. All of
which she did very successfully. A favourite story that I've heard from family is that she was busy
marking the young cattle (dressed in surgical whites and gloves) when she realised she should have
been at a board meeting. Off she dashed to get changed, popped back into the cattle yard in her silk
outfit to check that things were being done properly and then sped into town at a rate of knots to the
board meeting.
Having spent a lot of time with Betty when Meg was in the Epworth Hospital recovering from her
serious fall at Tumbarumba ride I am especially saddened at Betty's passing. Betty dropped everything
in her life and moved herself down to Melbourne to be by Meg's side through every step of the recovery
process. She spent every day with Meg and gave her as much support as possible. Her devotion to her
three daughters and the gracious way in which she lived her life is a tribute to Betty. The world is a little
less bright now that she has passed on and she will be very sorely missed by all at Castlebar.

Tie Up Your Dogs
Riders are responsible for the behaviour of their support crews and
friends. This extends to dogs associated with their camp, which
must be restrained at all times, either on a lead or secured in a float or
vehicle.
The Chief Steward may disqualify a rider if that riders’ support crew
causes disruption detrimental to the running of the ride. Refusal to
restrain a dog (of any size) after being requested to do so by the Chief
Steward, or an official of the Organising Ride Committee, may also lead
to disqualification of the rider.

Notes on NSW ERA Meeting held 22 February 2013
Present: Tom Perkins Snr, Tom McCormack,
Haydn Fisher, Marlee Turnbull, Greg Moore, Steve
Roberts (Zone 4), Marylou Locke, Emma
McCormack, Casey Holtom, Apologies: John Howe, Brad Jones, Gay Bonham
In attendance: Helen Rich (minutes), Sonya
Ruprecht, Charlie Gauci, Ron Males, Neil Clarkson.
50th Anniversary Tom Quilty Ride
Charlie took the floor and brought the SMC up to
date with the current position with the TQ15.
Minutes of the first meeting have been distributed.
Today they met with the new manager (Bill) at Del
Rio. Whatever was discussed with Stuart still
stands. We would then pay the deposit on
receiving approval from the AERA. Charlie
suggested that Tom McCormack write up a set of
conditions for lodgment of the deposit. Dogs on
leads will be allowed but they must remain on a
lead and not taken into cabins.
There have been a few issues with the TQ15 subcommittee; Gay has submitted a verbal resignation
from the TQ15 Executive.
In camera took place after which it was agreed that
the TQ15 sub-committee would review the situation
and return to the next SMC meeting in April with a
plan for the way ahead.
Charlie said we now have a proposed Logo for the
TQ15. It is the first Quilty winner.
The discussion on this matter ended at 7.05pm and
Ron Males, Charlie Gauci and Neil Clarkson left the
meeting.
Membership Growth Project Marlee said she sent out an email on this. We
need to get a package together for people who
want to do promotions at events. Essentially she
suggested a small card which could be stapled to
riders pink cards. It would contain details of the
organization and how to contact us. Pink cards are
usually for day members. The back of the pink
card is blank. We could add our details to this
when we need to print new cards.
Suggested either arm bands or a sash which would
denote experienced people so that inexperienced
people know who they could consult at a ride.
Suggestion the Chief Stewards should speak to
new riders, advising them what they need to do
after they have completed a ride. New riders may
not know that they need to vet etc.
Tom Mc suggested that this subcommittee could
use the teleconference facility. They would cut
down the need to discuss things at a SMC meeting.
Teleconferencing is not expensive. Tom Mc will
give the details to Marlee.

what the current proposal is and why the last
proposal was rejected. There is now an
amendment on the table for consideration. Tom
Mc gave a detailed background to the negotiations
with EA.
In Summary, if we don’t sign, Tom Mc said he did
not know where we would stand. Tom Mc said he
recommended that we go with the second option
below.
We have two options. Support for the $8,000. On
a show of hands - unanimously against this.
The second option: $4,000 if sponsorship is
forthcoming. Agreement by majority at this meeting
to support this if there is sponsorship forthcoming.
Election of SMC executive (Charlie Gauci).
Charlie said he had this put on the Agenda for
discussion at this meeting. He gave his view on
how the SMC is elected at an AGM. The last 5
AGMs have all been the same when it comes to
voting for the executive. It seems to become quite
an issue the way it has been done. He suggested
that the executive be elected at the next NSW SMC
ie. the first SMC meeting after the AGM.
Charlie gave a brief outline of what went on with
the voting at the Manilla AGM. Approximately 80%
of the people around the table had no idea what
was going on. This happens constantly when new
people are elected. They should not have to pick
their leaders for the next year without knowing any
of the players involved. Charlie suggests that the
executive not be elected at the AGM. Do it at the
next SMC meeting. Everyone who wants to stand
for an executive position should nominate 7 days
before that meeting. This would give people time
to collect votes and to plan and other people to
work out who is who and decide who to vote for.
This is just a procedure that can be changed.
Those who are currently in the executive positions
at the time of the AGM, would stay on in a
caretaker role until after the next SMC meeting.
Tom P said he had a meeting with Jeff Slatter from
Sport and Recreation. Jeff is concerned that we
don’t use postal voting etc. Tom P said that our
governance person might like to discuss this with
Jeff from Sport and Rec.
Charlie said he feels that five proxy votes are too
many. The way our Constitution currently reads,
you need 75% of the membership – not 75% of the
people at the meeting – to get anything passed.
This needs to be changed. Tom P disagreed with
Charlie’s interpretation of the 75% rule.
Charlie spoke about SIAC – Horsley Park. Arabian
Society sponsorship, as endurance – they feel that
we are a minority group. This includes the Quilty.
This comment is coming from the Arabian Society
committee.
Grants. (Background notes circulated 16th Feb)
We are getting $6,500 pa. We need to do the
report and lodge it and we get our final money in
June. They are redefining the application process
and we will be advised in due course.
2012 grant is $14,900. This ended at the end of
2012. We have been granted an extension of time
until the end of June to use what remains of this
money – if we have projects on hand we need to
get them done. Tom Mc feels that we can make
good use of this money.
Tom Mc referred back to the AGM minutes in which
the financial reports are shown. Worked through
the allocation of the 2012 money and what to do
with the possible loss for the year. Are we happy to
accept the $8,000 loss. We are not broke. We
have $87,000 in the bank.
We passed a motion some time ago that we
maintain $50,000 in the bank. Agreement by those
present to go with and accept the $8000 loss.
Social Ride Affiliation fees.
Casey said she had been looking at the fees
charged for social rides. The amount of money that
the RO gets is a lot less than from trainers and
endurance rides. After affiliation fees and vet fees
are paid there isn’t enough left over to run a
successful ride. Speaking on 25 per riders per vet.
Marlee said that these training weekends are really
good for encouraging new members. There is too
much going on at the Q60 to assist new riders and
members. Question remains: how are we going to
make ends meet?
Tom Mc said we will run at a loss this year and if
so, we will need to revisit all of our activities next
year. We could have a debate about affiliation fees
at that time.
Portfolio allocation.
Marlee advised that she had discussions portfolios
with some members and received comment from
others in compiling the projected list. She asked if
anyone had any comments on the portfolios they
had been allocated. None were forthcoming.

They want to run a 10 klm ride. This is an ACT
community thing. Belinda feels that ACT should

shouldn’t have to fund it by waiving day
membership fees. We will approve it but we are
not willing to waive any fees. John to reply to this
letter stating this. Belinda said ACT should fund
this.
John Howe –Secretary, Correspondence
I am at present working on the Secretarial role. I
need to get the Secretarial computer up and
running. This will happen within the next couple of
days, as soon as I have the leads and thumb
drive that Gay is going to drop at the meeting
Friday night.
I have already contacted the Dept of Fair Trading
and the forms have been lodged to change the role
of public officer to myself. The details of the new
class of Intermediate Membership has also been
lodged.
Thank you to Tom Perkins for hopping in with so
much practical help. Tom and I are going to get
together soon to wade through the boxes of files
and assorted documentation to decide upon what
can be archived or possibly discarded.
The ride calendar is in good shape. The main thing
to approve Friday night will be the new St. Albans
ride that has moved back a week to avoid
Woodstock. Buchan in Victoria have asked to dual
affiliate with NSW, but as it's the same weekend as
Canberra at Brookvale. This could be a problem
and will require input from Steve Roberts and
Snowy Zone.
Commi ee Reports New Italy in the Northern Rivers has also asked to
dual affiliate and the North coast Zone has given its
tick of approval.
Sonya Ruprecht– Secretariat/Membership
services
Helen Lindsay tells me that the Lachlan club has
taken over a huge lease of land in the Kanimbla
NSW Endurance News May—June Page No. 37
Range near Cowra and are looking forward to
running a lot of rides at that location, much along
the Cedar Ridge concept at Oberon. This could
have some exciting ramifications as all the rides
that could be run would not have to leave the
property.
John Howe. Secretary and ride calendar.
NSWERA>
Tom Perkins –President, AERA.
The NSW ERA 2012 AGM was conducted in
Manilla as part of an educational weekend on 2nd
February 2013, hosted by the Tamworth & District
Endurance Club; three days of workshops and
information and training sessions. Hands down, the
‘best ever’ rating is clearly theirs. Our thanks go to
the club and, in particular, Gay Bonham and her
extended, hard working family.
Committee elections were conducted and outgoing
members Gary Tweedie, Kerry Spratt, and Carol
Griffiths were thanked for a job well done and we
welcomed new members Emma McCormack, Greg
Moore, and Marylou Locke; and reaffirmed Belinda
Hopley, and Gay Bonham into new terms.
Marlee Turnbull will be our new face at the AERA
table, replacing Gary Tweedie.
2013 will be a challenging year for NSWERA with
the launch of project TQ15 for the 50th anniversary
of the Quilty in 2015, managed by an SMC subcommittee; the launch of our new membership
category for short distance riding that will,
hopefully, broaden the appeal for our sport; and a
sub-committee to be formed for a project to target
membership growth during 2013.
In the weekend following the AGM we were well
represented at NP&W workshops at Kulnura and
Scone where horse access to specific National
Park Trails was detailed and prioritized. What can
we say? 'Thank you Fiona!' seems all too little for
the hours, work, and effort she has expended on
our behalf.
Cheers, Tom.
Tom McCormack – Treasurer, AERA Invoices
for approval P&L
Tom Mc once again referred to the figures
presented to the AGM. We are up $16,000 at this
point in time. We will have bills coming in one of
which will be an insurance bill from the AERA.
Question on merchandise: what margin of profit
and what do we charge for freight? Marlee
suggested 10%. Probably more important to get
our branding out there rather than make a profit.
Belinda Hopley –
There are new CS/TPR procedures.
*CS – Briefly the changes are:
The applicant must act as Assistant CS at 3
separate affiliated endurance rides, preferably
under 3, but at least 2 - different accredited Chief
NSW Endurance News May—June 2013 Page No. 38
Stewards.
Once the SMC has approved the CS Candidate’s
progress to this point, all documents are forwarded
to the AERA Chief Steward for final assessment
and accreditation and an oral exam relating to
people management skills and ability to act calmly
and think laterally in difficult situations.
To maintain accreditation a CS must officiate at
least one affiliated endurance ride every 24 months
and can regain accreditation by officiating at one
affiliated endurance ride under an accredited Chief
Steward
*TPR – is just being tweaked (retaining
accreditation) as we speak. It is up to the Ride CS
to ensure the TPR is satisfactory if they have
lapsed.
Please remember to add the TPR’s and Vets to the
volunteers’ list (with the Ride Sec) to be covered for
insurance purposes.
Please also be aware that a Training ride that is 4060K must have a standard 1hr vet check
RuleA16.1. In the 2012 Rule add-ons, Elevator
Ride rules 19.2.1 “Training rides that are
designated as elevator rides must be a minimum
distance of 40k and a max of 65k and comprise 2
or more legs”.
Horse WelfareThanks Gay for a great AGM. By all accounts the
extras were great. Due to travel commitments I was
only able to attend the Large Animal Rescue
presentation and thought it was great. It promoted
long discussion on the trip home, and gave us all
lots to think about. I would urge all horse owners
and handlers to get a travel plan in place (have
emergency numbers in phone, 1st aid kit, blanket
etc). “Equine Emergency Rescue” details are on
the Queensland Horse Council Home page. I
would also like to strongly urge everyone to have a
fire plan after the recent very high fire dangers
across the state.
Chelsea Kramer is a vet from Coffs Harbour who is
willing to travel outside Zone 6 to help at rides.
New recommended fees for vets for 2013 (and on
the website): 80 km ride $590 + GST; 120 km ride
$660 + GST; 160 km ride $820 + GST; Marathon
$425 + GST per day for endurance accredited vets.
Non accredited vets will be 75% of the accredited
vet fee. Vets may only be paid the GST providing
that they supply a tax invoice.
Haydn Fisher
No EW at this stage. He would like letterhead so
that he can send letters if necessary. The
Secretariat should generate a report each week
and email to Haydn.
Greg Moore
Chief Stewards are up to date. Vets are up to date.
Snowy have been very good sending things.
Please don’t send anything in PDF form. Please
send as a Word document. If sending a photo – do
not send large ones as in 9 gig as these will need
be resized.
Marylou Locke – Zone 6
The Zone has five rides this year. Two new ones.
Hoping to run a 40 next year at Bulladelah. We
have a pointscore running.
Zone 1 – Casey Holtom –
Zone One has had its AGM. Had our first event for
the year with 124 entries at our training weekend.
Ran a TPR school. We have had a very large
increase in council fees. Q60 coming up. We have
a date for St Albans. Putty will be our Zone One
championship ride. Trying to promote the sport to
new comers. Did some flyers and used arm bands
at our ride. Facebook page going well. Had
someone allocated for meeting and greeting
newbies.
Zone 4- Steve Roberts – Dispute Resolution &
Disciplinary Process amendments
The Zone AGM was held on 9 February,.
The ACTERA offered to host the Zone
Championship ride on the October long weekend,
in conjunction with Zone helpers, as has been done
the last 2 years at Coolamon & The Rock. This has
proven to be a successful way of spreading the
workload, with the host club providing everything to
do with the course & the Zone people doing the
rest such as ride administration. Profits are split
between the groups. The course will be 120km,
possibly an elevator from 100km, in 4 legs, with a
stand-alone no-frills 80km event, plus a trainer &
possibly introductory ride. A meeting to discuss
further details has already been held to develop
track ideas.
These schools need to be sanctioned by the NSW
SMC prior to the running of the event. Organisers
should not run schools without discussing it first
with the NSW SMC.
Kurrajong Event
Greg said there is a person in our local area who is
training a horse from inside the vehicle. She has
also been observed training a horse which is
running free up the Comleroy Road, Kurrajong
while she is riding another horse behind it. This
person is an endurance rider and she has been
spoken to in the past.
If she pays her membership and becomes a
member of NSW ERA, she would need to be
advised that her insurance would be wiped. If she
becomes a member she could be warned.
Code of conduct paragraph was read from the rule
book.
Tom Mc welcomed Casey, Emma and Marylou to
the SMC.
There being no further business the meeting closed
at 10.30 pm
A training course on the operation of the new
database will be conducted soon by Jessica Taylor;
invitations to attend will be extended to other clubs
in southern NSW. The course will be held on a
weekend at the Weston Club which should make
attendance easier for more people.
Ride dates - some dates were jostled around this
year to fit around the State Championships in
Manilla and the Quilty in Queensland, and there is
the new (20 and 40 km) ride at Bumbaldry near
Cowra. The track is varied like those at the
Shahzada with a bit through paddocks, some bush
tracks, some steep bits etc. The Lachlan Valley
Endurance Club has leased the state forest
(apparently a couple of thousand hectares) that the
ride will be mostly held in, for this purpose and for
future rides (up to possibly 160 km) for the next few
years. So this is excellent news and will mean that
there will be a new ride on the ride calendar to
compensate for the loss of Tumbarumba. The club
there has sadly been dissolved and its assets
dispersed.

Q60
Q60 ENDURANCE RIDE – SUNDAY 14TH APRIL 2013
Article submitted by Eileen McILwain
The competition was fierce at the Q60 Endurance Ride which took place in the stunning bushland
surrounding the Upper Colo Reserve. Almost fifty horses and riders accepted the invitation to ride
100kms of the original Quilty course, but in the end it came down to two riders – Tom Bouzianis
and Andrew Mackinder. Tom’s horse was none other than Conderosa Zeus, the 8 year old
purebred Arabian gelding he placed 4th on at the Shahzada 400km Marathon last year. Andrew
was riding his faithful mare Sundown Park Cariad, a 10 year old Anglo- Arabian who has taken
Andrew to victory ten times over the last two years in the Junior division. Their most notable wins
include a 160km FEI*** and two 160km State Championships.
Tom and Andrew were neck and neck as they crossed the bridge over the Colo River, but
declared a tie by holding hands across the finish line. Andrew and Cariad also won the highly
coveted “Best Conditioned” (BC) award which is judged on speed, weight carried, and veterinary
scores. The pair have won 10 BC awards since they formed their partnership. It’s an exciting start
to Andrew’s first season in the Open Division after his success as a Junior. I caught up with the
quiet 18 year old to find out more about the Q60.
So Andrew, that was a heart stopping finish! How did you and Tom end up tied after
100kms?
It was about halfway through the second leg as Tom passed me, and I ended coming in a few
minutes after them off the second leg. When it was time to go back out on the third leg, I passed
Joint winners of the 100 klm event at Colo. Andrew Mackinder riding Sundown Park Cariad and

him just outside camp. He tailed me for a bit then we rode side by side the whole way, and as
soon as we came back across the bridge we galloped all the way to the walk zone, and seeing
there was no finish line, we decided to come in together.
How did you feel presenting Sundown Park Cariad for the final veterinary inspection?
Pretty relaxed, it was hot but I wasn’t worried. Dad was there to help strap so I knew everything
was under control.
Endurance is a tough sport. What was the biggest challenge you had to deal with on the
day?
I’ll be honest, getting out of bed is always hard for me, but apart from that probably just the heat. It
was a pretty hot day and the forecast was 19 degrees, so it was a bit unexpected, but at the end
of day Mackinder Endurance always comes prepared for all weather so it was manageable.
What were some of the highlights of the Q60 endurance ride?
Definitely the gallop finish. I’ve never seen that mare go so quickly, it was honestly unbelievable to
ride 100km and then to put so much effort and speed into the last 500m. It was just insane.
You’ve been competing in endurance since you were 14 years old. Any tips for people who
want to get started in the sport?
Always try to have fun, and make the most out of every moment there is.
Of course, events like this are only possible with the help of volunteers and sponsors. The ride
was organised by Greg Moore, one of the many volunteers for Zone 1 Endurance Riders Inc.
The event received generous support from the following sponsors: Agnes Banks Equine Clinic;
Animal Focus – Jo Arblaster (photographer); Conderosa Arabians; Hawkesbury Equine Veterinary
Care; Hidez – Animal Compression Suits; Joint Performance ; Keeden Contracting; Proforge –
Rodney Brazil (farrier); Sydney Equestrian Supplies; Tallawudjah Arabians.

50th Anniversary Tom Quilty Ride
Meeting tomorrow morning. Gay does not believe that the committee is obliged to give AERA a copy of the
TQ50 minutes until the official agreement is signed.
2013 State Championships
All going well. Note The Zones will be having their respective meetings soon, some sponsorship should
come from them. The committee would like to change the vetting from Gate into Hold to standard AERA
vetting but with early present. Spoken to Kym and Stuart who have agreed that this should work. Kym is
still insisting on a compulsory represent after the third leg. There will be an away vet check. Entry fee
reduced to $280.00.
AGM – Intermediate Membership
Discussion paper previously sent out by Tom Perkins. Need to keep the motion for the Intermediate
Membership purely relating to the membership. Carol is going to the AGM and has started on a
presentation. This has been passed by the AERA at first reading. It will be back to the next meeting and it
will be retrospective if passed.
IDP Pack
Tom Perkins had a paper on this and stated that there were a few minor changes to the paper sent out
previously. He went on to discuss these. Mainly revolved around any possible ‘conflict of interest’. Paper
was passed around with the changes highlighted.
MOVED
THAT
Carried
Gay Bonham, Greg Moore
the IDP pack as presented be accepted.
Unanimous
Horse Health Declarations
This was sent out previously by Tom Perkins. This came from the AERA: Motion reads: That all horses
participating in endurance rides in Australia are required to complete a horse health declaration form until
further notice and provide it to the ride organizer at the point of entry.
WA yes, Qld yes, Tas yes, Vic no, SA no, NSW no. CARRIED. NEW RULE FOR 2013.
This was discussed at length with the following motion eventually put.
MOVED
THAT
Carried
Gay Bonham, Greg Moore
to comply with the Health Declaration request Steve Roberts will assist with the wording for
NSW entry forms
Unanimous
Membership Growth Project
If we get a new grant, we should set up some sort of reporting criteria. Tom P said in the new one it’s a
50/50 contribution. The earlier grants allowed travel and accommodation. The new application doesn’t.
Tom P said that if we want to build a promotion – this new one will provide money for resources, DVDs etc,
possibly cover appearance money for someone to go and do a demonstration but won’t cover their travel
expenses. If we could identify any money left in the earlier grants – could we carry it over? Greg said that
we don’t know what’s been spent so we don’t know what’s left. Greg suggests we don’t open any more
doors on the past. If we get another grant, we should start again and devise a suitable accounting plan for
the future.
NSW ERA Legal Advisor
A letter was sent to Steve Finnane over four months ago but we did not get a response. It was sent to Mr
Finnane’s Chambers in the city. Agreement to worry about this if the necessity arrives.

NSW Endurance News May—June 2013 Page No. 48
Marlee will have clothing at the AGM for members to view. Orders can then be taken. With the team
events, clothing is awarded and Marlee will arrange to purchase the appropriate items.
Tom McCormack has written off all of the old clothing in the books. Suggests that we take everything to the
AGM, put $10 on the articles and sell at the AGM. Aim not to bring any items back.
Agreement on Life members – Those who want to ride need to apply for a membership card on receipt of a
membership application.
We need Neil to print off ‘Intermediate’ level cards. Approval duly given.
John Howe – Ride calendar
To date the calendar for 2013 is filling rapidly, a good sign of a healthy sport.
Ride Organisers to a large degree are now following the guidelines very well, there is, of course, the odd
swap around and Organisers who want us "to pencil" dates in. However, this is no longer the problem that it
was.
With the need to promote and grow the sport, I'm pleased to see Tom's proactive stance re these important
tasks over the next 3 years, esp as T.Q 15 is approaching at a rate of knots .I can only assume that the
2014 State Champs will probably be run on the proposed T.Q 15 course, this will bring home to us how 2
and a half years can slip away.
To this end I would love to be fully involved in any and all endeavors to increase the membership of our
sport and to promote Endurance riding in all it's forms, from Training rides to Shahzada.I feel that it's about
9.00 p.m. and it's time for us as a management committee to get going.
Ride Application bookings received.
St. Albans 80/40/20 – 22.9.2013 – alternate 28.7.2013. 14 klm too short towards Woodstock but on the
alternative weekend they would be running against Bago.
Currowan Endurance (Nilligen) Zone 5 - 29/30 June – alternate 6/7 July – 80/40/20. There is a very limited
window to hold this event. Approved.
Zone 2 Championships at Windeyer on 19/20th October. Meets the current criteria. It is a week after Putty.
Approved providing Charlie doesn’t have a problem with the date.
Email from Tall Timbers. They have just received approval from VERA. Running on 27th April. This is the
day before Gundagai. NSW is not able to dual affiliate.
With TQ15 coming up it will be one of the best things we can use to get more interested in the sport. .
Tom Perkins –President, Google Maps, Governance, Procedures.
Procedures Report - There have been no updates in 2012 for the Governance Manual which is now
prominent on the web site and will be kept up to date there; so I will not be producing individual copies for
distribution to the SMC this year. The Motions and minutes file will be brought up to date and copies
distributed to the new SMC at the meeting following the AGM.
Marlee Turnbull – Vice President, AERA , Zone Liaison, Child Protection Officer
Facebook coming along nicely. Over 500 likes. Merchandise is underway. One set of men’s, women’s and
kids clothing ordered. Cap or beanie option also available. Discussing types of hats or caps.
With promotions we should be looking to who will be on the new committee. Small Farms Day at
Hawkesbury showed that we need a kit for promotions. Agree on items that can go around to this type of
event. We should get a subcommittee together and work on it and see if there is grant money available.
Gay said Bec Hogan is running a Getting Started in Endurance event. She needed insurance. Sonya
wants more ‘Getting started in Endurance’ printed. Sonya can forward this to Marlee. She would like
something to send out to new members. Belinda offered to help with this.
Equitana and Small Farms Expo you need some sort of demonstration. It’s a very hard thing to do.
Discussing subsidized vet fees. Should this not be only for training or introductory rides? Not for main
longstanding rides.
Tom McCormack – Treasurer, AERA Invoices for approval P&L
No Report. Tom Perkins said he would like to make a few comments. He went to the last AERA meeting.
He said that he thought he had a fair handle on the amount of work that is being done.
Tom said he thought that he was putting in a fair amount of personal time but it was an eye opener as to
how much work Tom McCormack is doing. The amount of things that he is doing would kill a horse. If we
could help him out with his workload, it would probably be a good thing.
NSW Endurance News May—June Page No. 49
Gay Bonham – Secretary, Ride Administration, Ride Standards
No correspondence report. Only letter was sent to Sally Fenner to which we have received no reply.
Received a letter from AERA asking that we name the NSW vet for the Queensland Quilty. Been contacted
by Equitana and they want to know if we want a stand. Agree to hold this over to the next meeting. We
need to let them know by end of April 2013. Maybe we should write to AERA and ask if they want to pay
half of the fees. Gay said Kim and Kym are happy to provide a demonstration again. Marlee said that last
time she had the passes that got her helpers into the event.
Haydn Fisher – Horse Welfare, CS & TPR, Vet Liaison
There was a certain member who was on the cusp of getting a letter under the points system. Didn’t quite
get to 30 points. He spoke to her but he thinks she is due for a letter. The rider rides differing horses for
different people and this seems to be the problem. She did 36 rides and vetted out of 50%. No drug
testing. Gail has done her testing with Jeff Bonham. Haydn asked if NSW ERA would pick up her
expenses.
MOVED
THAT
Carried
Gay Bonham, John Howe
NSW ERA pay Gail Fisher’s EA membership for 2013
Unanimous
Steve Roberts said that he has done a swab on a horse at a recent ride and he is not an EA member. He
did this at the request of AERA. We are following the EA procedures, do we need to use EA members?
We need to use EA accredited swab stewards. Gay said that Jeff Bonham would prefer not to continue as
a drug steward.
Zone 1 – Greg Moore – Feedback Forum, Ride Surveys, Membership Surveys
Have you all looked at the website? Photo ribbons are a bit of a problem. Zone delegates asked to send
their Zone information in.
Tom Perkins said that when you go to any tab this could be made password protected. If we have a tab
that we don’t want public, general membership could not open that tab. Consider that we have a TAB in the
drop down menu where there is a page for each portfolio but only SMC members could see it. Greg was
asked to think about the idea as he wasn’t currently in favour of it.
Zone 2- Brad Jones
Brad to supply his details to add his information on the inside back cover of the newsletter. Zone 2 needs to
change its ride buckle. At the recent Zone AGM, there were some new members, a family of four who
wrote a cheque out for $500 for a new mould for a new buckle. This was great.
Zone 4- Steve Roberts – Dispute Resolution & Disciplinary Process amendments
No news other than the summary that was put out for the AGM. Anne Lymbery is not as badly injured as he
was led to believe.
Zone 5 – Belinda Hopley – Horse Welfare, CS & TPR, Vet Liaison,
Gay needs to move Belinda’s report up the Agenda. Gary Tweedie is the new Zone Delegate. Belinda is
now in Kerry’s position. She will be standing for election at the AGM.
Report from Kiwarrak – Shaun Pollard is now set to become a Chief Steward. He has done all that is
required. No problems at the Kiwarrak ride. Went well. One vet didn’t turn up but they were able to get
another one who possibly was not an accredited vet.
FEI championships – Sonya chief stewarded at that ride. Four invasive treatments. One horse died.
Sassafras – Neil was chief steward. Went well, very hot, lots of vet outs. Social riders without hats, had
whips and spurs but this was all sorted out in the end.
29 rides, 2 horse deaths. Quite a lot of invasive treatments this year. Three came from Red Range. More
information is set out in Belinda’s AGM report.
General Reports
Workshops for National Parks access. Two weeks after the AGM. One at Muswellbrook. Sue and Charlie
are going to one of these meetings. Neil Clarkson is also going to a meeting.
There is a meeting at Bilpin in two weeks but it’s by invitation only.
There being no further business the meeting closed at 10.15 pm

Committee Notices
Attention Ride Secretaries
Following a recommendation from the AERA International Committee (AERA IC),
the AERA has agreed that a $5.00 affiliation fee should be paid to the AERA IC for
each horse entered into a FEI ride. Ride Organisers should add this amount to
their ride entry fee.
AERA Inc
Attention Chief Stewards
Would you please ensure that all:

Invasive Treatment Forms, Rider reports,

Rest Orders and


Please take the time to check that all required areas are correctly filled in and that
the names are spelt correctly.
Belinda Hopley – for the NSW SMC
NSW ERA Notice
Horse Yards: Riders are reminded of their duty of Care with
regard to Horse Containment at rides. There have been a
number of incidences that have resulted in injuries serious
enough to withdraw from the ride. One horse received
injuries serious enough to be out for quite a few months.
So please, think about how and where you contain your
horse and try to have someone supervise your horse at all
times.
NSW SMC
NSW Endurance News May—June 2013 Page No. 64
Ride Bases Map
The NSWERA Web page now has a Google map with ‘Find it’ features that will show the distribution
of ride bases through NSW and provide a map with directions from your home to the ride base.


Enter your hometown in the start address.
Click ‘GO’ and print off the map and directions.
If you have a navigator in your vehice the map coordinates are shown in the text box, but a word
of caution when using a navigator to go to a map grid reference, navigators are programmed to find
the most direct route (as the crow flies), and as you get close to your destination they sometimes
want to turn you down a side road or even a forest trail.
Ride organisers
To have a ride base added to the map,
1. Go to Google on the internet.
2. Select 'Maps' from the menu bar at the top.
3. With a map of Australia showing.

9. A green flag will appear at the spot and a 'Get directions' box will appear in the top left corner.
10. If the flag is not quite right, click and drag it.
11. In the 'Get directions' box against flag 'A' will be the map grid reference for the spot chosen, it
will look like ( -30.294007,147.498579)
12. Jot down that reference with the ride name and email it to me at ‘[email protected]’.
To check we have located the marker correctly, or if the ride base has been moved, zoom in
on your marker on the Ride Bases Map as described above, switch to Satellite and check the
position of the marker. If it is in error follow the procedure above and email me the details.
Also run some tests approaching your ride base from different directions and note any anomalies,
see the Shahzada text box for an example.

NSW Endurance News May—June Page No. 67
Logbook & Identification Procedures
A horse is a novice for a minimum of 90 days from the date on which it successfully
completes its first affiliated endurance ride and may only attempt four rides during
this period, ie if a horse successfully completes its first ride on 1st July, it cannot
upgrade to endurance status until after 28th September and may only enter four
rides during this period. There is no limit on the time it takes to reach endurance
status. Your horse can be a novice for as many months (or years) as you like.
When your horse has successfully completed 240 kms of affiliated endurance (not
training) rides, it can be upgraded from novice (blue log book) to endurance (yellow
log book) status.
Ensure the brands are clear. If not, have the horse re-branded or microchipped
(Refer to rule H5.2(a) - (b) ) and H5.3).
Have a vet complete the horse identification form (written description and diagrams)
and sign it. Identification and microchipping can be done at most rides, but it is
advisable to check with the ride secretary beforehand.
Complete the logbook application form and attach I.D. form, novice horse logbook
and the appropriate fee.
Please allow 10 working days from date of posting for return.
It is essential to retain a copy of the I.D. form and perhaps have it laminated for the
future.
PLEASE NOTE An Endurance Horse Logbook will not be issued unless a signed
Veterinary Identification Form is enclosed with the application. The I.D. in the novice
log book is NOT acceptable.
If there is anything that you are unsure of, please do not hesitate to phone me.

Transfer of Ownership Procedures
It is the responsibility of the purchaser of the horse to notify the State of the change in
ownership details. It is important that the correct person be registered as the owner of the
horse as this assists with the correct allocation of National and State distance and
pointscore awards as well as identifying the persons responsible for the horse when
disciplinary actions need to be instituted.
Process for Changing Ownership Details
When a sale of a horse occurs and the horse has had a logbook issued it is the
responsibility of the new owner to notify the State of the change of ownership. A transfer of
ownership form must be completed and forwarded to the State, together with a cheque for
$11 and the logbook.
Once the transfer of ownership form is received the logbook can be amended with the
change in owners and the transfer verified by the Logbook Secretary/Registrar.
Procedure for Recording Change of Ownership
Transfer of ownership forms are to be made readily available to all members, preferably
through the State Newsletters or upon application to the Logbook Secretary/Registrar.
Once a logbook, transfer of ownership form and fee are received the Logbook Secretary/
Registrar will:
1.
Record the ownership transfer into the logbook.
2.
Verify the transfer.
3.
Return the logbook.
4.
Record the ownership transfer into the computer records of the State Division.
5.
Keep a copy of the ownership transfer form and forward the original to the AERA
Registrar.

AUSTRALIAN ENDURANCE RIDERS ASSOCIATION INC.
MEMBERS DANGEROUS ACTIVITY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
In consideration of the New South Wales Endurance Riders Association Inc. ("the

This agreement is compulsory and is entered into by:
Participant 1 Name: ……………………………..……………………….M’Ship No. ……………………...
…………….
Participant 2 Name: ……………………………………..……………….M’Ship No. ……………………...
…………….
And covers my participation in all endurance riding activities affiliated with or endorsed by the Association.
I understand that –
There are potentially significant risks and hazards involved with endurance riding, and that horses are powerful and potentially dangerous animals;
There are certain inherent risks in the terrain, public roadways, weather and other forces of nature which may
arise during my participation in endurance riding, and that such risks may vary from ride to ride;
The Ride Organisers and the State Management Committee make every effort to ensure the safety of the ride
base and ride course, and the safety and well-being of all participants and their horses, and to minimize any
risk of injury, death or loss due to negligence or omission by the organisers and the Association;
It is compulsory to wear an approved safety helmet at all times while on a horse at any event affiliated or endorsed by the Association;
I am responsible for the control and welfare of any horse in my care or which I elect to ride and for ensuring
that I am capable of managing any such horse in the interests of my own safety, and that of other participants,
horses and property:
If I fail to comply with any reasonable instruction, request or direction by Ride Organisers or other designated
officials, upon my being so warned by the appointed Chief Steward, she/he may terminate any further participation by me, such termination being at my expense, and I waive any claim or refund;
I am free to withdraw my participation at any time should I determine that to do so is in the interests of my
safety and well-being or that of other participants and horses.
I agree –
That if I have a medical condition or impairment which may affect my capacity to act safely and in the best
interests of the welfare of myself, other participants and horses, then I take full responsibility for any consequence of such medical condition or impairment;
To comply with AERA and the Association’s Ride Rules and any reasonable instruction, request or direction
from ride officials as to the safety and well-being of myself and other participants, and the management of
horses;
That due to diseases such as equine influenza, the Department of Primary Industries or other state or commonwealth government body, may restrict or prevent the movement of horses, vehicles and personnel for a
period of time, otherwise known as a “standstill”. I acknowledge that a standstill is a risk of competing and
agree to pay any costs or expenses incurred by any person or organisation for and behalf of my horse(s) as a
result of the standstill.
I have read and understood the above document
