Re: RC: Re: AERC National Championships



Heidi..... you say you "disagree".... but your comments support what I
said...... FEI and World Championships ARE very consistent and clearly
follow a consistent pattern of organization, rules, regulations and
promotion.  Anyone who even thinks about entry to those rides know EXACTLY
what they must do and know exactly what to expect........

With AERC NC ..... especially the previous qualifying attempt so called
"Championship" a person never had a chance to know what was going on due to
all the "Chiefs" making decisions and no "Indians" to follow up.

I think we agree...... Thanks for your comments and I hope that we can set
an example to be positive with our comments and keep individual "rambling
discussions" between ourselves and not take up all of ridecamps time and
space!  Thanks again, Sharon
