Suggested wording:
Appendix GR-A. Officials Requirement Summary
Organizers of ADS-approved events must secure the services of at least one ADS licensed official. Exception: Sleigh Rallies.
Reason for change:
Sleigh rallies are more informal competitions usually on tight budgets and held on short
notice due to the vagaries of local weather conditions. To keep the costs within reason,
local knowledgeable horse persons are usually capable of adequately officiating and are
acceptable.

ReplyDeleteRCP#2 ok as proposed
ReplyDeleteour current pandemic situation points out that we operate with a severe shortage of licensed officials. I’m sure you are all aware of this and understand that as people age the shortage will become more acute. I don't have a solution but hope that consideration is being given to making the process of becoming and official less onerous and expensive - good luck - I fear it will be far from easy.

RCP#2 – Instead of “sleigh rallies” I’d rather see the exception made for “informal competitions held on short notice”.

Cheryl Pratt Rivers ADS# 032720 on proposed rule changes for 2021
ReplyDeleteI write to comment on proposed rule changes for 2021. I am a long time driver who has competed in both Pleasure Shows and CDEs from the training to the advanced level and have competed in Europe as well. I have attended several world championships as a spectator as well.
I am embarrassed that I have never paid much attention to rule change proposals before. This year though you have gotten my attention and I am writing with a sense of urgency and a deep disappointment at the direction of a couple of the changes. I appreciate the effort that people put into these changes, and support most of them. I oppose those that I believe will discourage and reduce participation in our sport which I believe is at risk for survival.
RCP#2 Support enthusuastically. This will likely make it easier for these events to be held and to be affiliated with ADS

I think this makes sense too and will allow sleigh rallies to be rescheduled on short notice when the weather is appropriate for sleighing which is increasingly less frequent. I support this change.

Support, but how are sleigh rallies different than other informal competitions on a tight budget and held on short notice. If a change is adopted, then it should also apply to other informal events on a tight budget and held on short notice.
