Information for all Clubs running open P/C Gymkhanas (UPDATED)

8th March 2010

Previous suggestion of blue card has been recinded as:

This avenue has proved to be to difficult to set up as not all State and Territory Associations are able to produce this format. It has been decided that PCA will endevour to produce with the help of all States and Territory an electronic logon system with payment options.
In the interim it has been approved from PCA and Aon that we will reintroduce the "Day Attendance" form with the same system as before EXCEPT, there will be a penalty for any one abusing or ignoring this process.

Day attendance forms to be on the Web page ASAP.

Nature Vet Helps Horse Owners Support Their Local Clubs

2nd March 2010

This month sees the launch of the exciting and innovative website - Nature Vet Direct – a brand new concept in online, horse related shopping, which profit-shares with Equine clubs across Australia, so clubs directly benefit from every purchase made online – and it doesn’t cost any more than shopping anywhere else.

Nature Vet, a wholly Australian-owned company, which manufactures a wide range of specialised pharmaceuticals and supplements for performance and pleasure horses, greyhounds, domestic pets and racing camels, has developed this full-service website especially for the horse lover.
‘We have had a very keen interest in equine health and a close association with all types of equine sport for the last 30 years, and have been looking for ways to provide broadly based, direct financial support to the clubs at a grass-roots level for some time.’

‘Nature Vet Direct, is an initiative that gives horse owners online access to our broad range of high quality equine products and services, and channels 15% of all product sales directly back to riding clubs across Australia. Because we manufacture our own products, we can do this without it costing horse owners any more than it would at any other online store or retail outlet, said Clare McKinnon, Nature Vet Directs Marketing Manager.

‘By shopping for your horse at www.naturevetdirect.com.au you will be effectively supporting your club, you can select either; EA, PCA or an Association to nominate where your 15% goes. If you do not want to give your percentage to a club you can donate it to a selection of Horse Welfare organisations Nature Vet Direct has Alliances with. Every quarter, these contributions or profit shares will be allocated to the nominated EA, PCA or Associations account to be used for Club Development Grants for individual clubs requiring funding for things such as running events and ground improvements etc, said Mrs McKinnon’.

‘You can also visit the Products or Horse Health pages for information on the latest developments from Nature Vet’s veterinarians, extensive Research and Development team and manufacturing partners.

One of the key elements of Nature Vet Direct is the exchange of information between and among horse- involved people. As part of this, Nature Vet Direct will regularly publish up-to-date information, news and events of interest, and also welcome your input in this area.

Logon to the horse owner’s Online Forum to chat with other horse lovers, and once a month chat online with the guest equine vet – ask your questions and get expert feedback.
