SMDA is Celebrating 25 Years!
Design SMDA's 25th Anniversary T-shirt!
SMDA would love to feature a club member's design on our 25th anniversary t-shirt. The shirt will be sold at all clinics and shows during the 2012 season. The design should capture the spirit and enjoyment of riding dressage!
Please email submissions to Robyn Cuffey at robyn@sacoriver.net. Deadline is March 15, 2012. The winner will receive a $50 gift certificate.

Membership information
Memberships are due October 1st. We know that this is early, but it is necessary because we need to get our membership information in to MDS and USDF to make sure everyone stays current. If you don’t get your membership sent in before December 15th there is a $10 late fee. Note that the late fee only applies to renewals, and is not applicable to new (first-time members). Also, please note that if you are a member of more than one MDS club (for example, SMDA as well as CMDA) you can subtract $25 from the SECOND club membership (please note which other club you are a member). Please help us out with a timely membership renewal, which will enable us to keep your USDF Connection and Horses’s Maine subscriptions going, and ensure you get your copy of the 2011 Omnibus on time.

Electronic Newsletters
Maine Dressage Society is switching to an electronic newsletter, which will save almost $2,000 per year in postage and photocopying expenses. The newsletter will be posted on the MDS website (www.mainedressagesociety.org). If you are unable to access the internet, please send a note along with your membership form and we will make arrangements to have your newsletter mailed. Similarly, SMDA is also planning to transition to an electronic newsletter this year. PLEASE write your email address clearly on the membership form – yes, we know the space is small, so feel free to write it in the margin or on a separate sheet of paper. The Fall Newsletter is now available in PDF format.Download it here >>
