Day Membership
Riders who are not ANTs members may be eligible to ride with our club.
Not an ATHRA member and not an ANTs member:
If a rider is not a member of ATHRA, they can purchase a Day membership from the ATHRA website, twice in a riding calendar year.
It is important to talk to the event organiser before you purchase the Day membership, as we are unable to give refunds when a Day payment has been processed and it is not transferable.
The payment will be $30 / event. This is made up of $20 to ATHRA (which includes insurance cover) and $10 to ANTs.
Our preference is that you first attend one of our training rides, so that we can gauge the skills of both the horse and rider.
ATHRA member but not an ANTs member:
ATHRA members will need to RSVP to the event and advise the organiser that they are a member of another ATHRA club.
ATHRA riders will need to pay $10 to ANTs, on or before the event, to the event organiser. There may be additional charges, depending on the event type (e.g. a camping weekend) but this will be advertised.
