Other than the Royal, is there any breed shows with CB classes?

Sassafrass, are you a member of the CBHSA?

A lot of the classes run require that you are a member of the CBHSA and that the horse is registered.....

Email me if you need a membership form at all - shell@cmsporthorses.com

The best thing to do is contact the show societies and see what classes they have, I know there are a number of shows with CB classes in Victoria - Geelong has a class for them, and my brain has just gone blank as to the locations of the others at the moment.........

The CBHSA is willing and happy to sponsor classes in shows if requested - all that needs to be done is send a brief outline of the show and proposed classes to the CBHSA Secretary ( cbhsasecretary@gmail.com ) and that will be taken to the committee, and a decision made

Thanks Shell, just waiting on Pippa's papers (still) to arrive so I can include her on the application if I decide to go ahead with it.
Downloaded it from the CB site.

There isn't anywhere that I could find the benefits of being a member, though if you can only enter CB classes at shows if you are a member it may be of use, as long as there are classes close by (bendigo, ballarat etc)
I really want to do jumping & dressage with Pippa, so there may not be any point to becoming a member then?

Hey there Sassafrass.........

The membership forms now get sent to the new secretary - should have the new forms with the new secretarys details on the website shortly......

Address is:

CBHSA Secretary
Craig Coburn
"Wollemi" PO Box 77
Minnipa SA 5654

You can get her transfered to your name if your papers arent forthcoming - all you need to do is fill out a registration form that is online as well, and send that to the Registrar - Jenni Larsen (her address is on the CBHSA website too)

Just explain that your mare is registered, but you havent got the papers from the previous owner, and that you would like a new set and for her to be transfered to your name.

All you do is write down all the details you know and her brands and Jenni can sort that out for you Helps if you know her registered name or at least her sire and dam and what year she was born.........

Benefits of being a member of the CBHSA are that you get a newsletter every 2 months, the CBHSA sponsors classes at shows, and you need to be a CBHSA member to enter nearly every show that has classes for CBs....

You can participate in the high points awards for the CBHSA as well - you send in your showing and dressage placings and % scores and at the end of the financial year you get a prize if you should happen to be the winner........ it also gives you an idea of how you are going against other CB owners in Australia and NZ......

There is a great range of merchandise available too!!

There is also a new CB club that is going to be starting up in Victoria in the Gipsland area I believe.......

Kerryn Dunlop is the Victorian CBHSA representative too.......she is really lovely - karramar@hotmail.com is her email address. Just put CBHSA in the subject line if you send her an email.

We have a new committee for the CBHSA and are all committed to promoting the horses and finding out what the members want and doing our best to please..........

So join up, and have your say!

Talkingshell who posts here too is the Newsletter Editor and the treasurer for the CBHSA as well as being a committee member!

Shell...thanks for mentioning me!

Any of you who are member of the CBHSA....would you be interested to contribute your story and CB into the newsletter! Please feel free to email them to me on baybulletin@gmail.com and your story will be in the Bay Bulletin newsletter...I think that's exciting part!

We CBHSA hope that we can provide things what members want....cheers!

Great! Thanks for that "shells"

Got her papers this week (phew) so all right to transfer her over

Don't know of anyone over western Victoria do you? Gippsland is a little far.

Hmmmmmm not sure of where everything is located in Victoria Sassafrass...........

Have you joined up with the Vichorse forum? There are a large number of CB people there in the Breeds section - there is a thread specifically for CBs....... Maybe join up there and post, Im sure some of the girls there can let you know who is in your area and whats happening there........ Kerryn, myself and Talkingshell post there too
