The Southern Highlands Club conducted a successful Anzac CDE at the Club grounds at Bundanoon, with competitors coming from Sydney, Camden, Canberra, Bega, Braidwood, Cootamundra, Grenfell and Wagga Wagga as well as the Southern Highlands.(see report in this Whip Around)
The club has been very busy raising funds for and organizing next year’s 10 day ACDS 40th Anniversary Carriage Driving Festival at Bundanoon. Plans are well under way for a most memorable driving event, which will involve all ACDS disciplines – CDE, Dressage, Showing, Pleasure and Endurance and the newest discipline - Historical.
The Festival organizing committee is now meeting on a monthly basis to ensure that the 10 days of carriage driving at Easter 2011 will be up to members’ expectations. It is producing a DVD presentation for display at this year’s Federal ACDS Conference at Albury on July 16-18. It will feature images of the various facilities which will be in use at the Festival, as well as recent action shots of competitors in many of the marathon obstacles. Over 100 images are expected to be included.
