Hello all current and potential WNYCCA members! 
 
Here’s a little preview of our 2024 Season. There are 2 BIG changes coming up! 
      1. We added a 3rd day to the Avon Driving Park Pleasure Show! Friday will now have a Combined Test!
        1. Please take this survey to help us understand if you’d like this to be a rated show
      2. Our own CT and Continuous Drive show series!  3 Shows Spring/Summer/Fall that will have its own year end awards.  Shows will be open to all, but only members will be eligible for year end awards. 
 
Speaking of awards, the 2023 ECHO Year end Award winners are:
 
Champion Reserve
WT Pony Lindsay LaBella Jess Clark
WT Horse Judy Sobczak Steven French
WTC Pony Kim Ciulla Felicity Demitry
WTC Horse Sarah Reitz Jess Clark
WT Riding Kim Ciulla McKenna Crowley
 
Each of them received an embroidered Champion or Reserve Champion backpack and duffle bag complete with the WNYCCA logo! 
 
We couldn’t have such great events without our volunteer crew.  To everyone who helped between their own classes and those who don’t drive but support our special kind of passion; thank you!  We have a great calendar coming up in 2024 and will need your help to make sure our events run smoothly!
 
Please consider becoming a WNYCCA member in 2024! It’s easy to join and you receive discounts at our events!
