Thank you to all who attended the 2022 RPSBS AGM held on Saturday 25th June 2022 at the Novatel Hotel  Mascot, and via zoom available  to all members. We welcome  the new Director from Qld Mark Lilley and the Tasmanian Director  Fiona Clark. They are bringing a wealth of experience to the RP  Board.

We say happy retirement to our long  standing registrar Helen Dohan who has been in the AHSA office and has been the main reason for all registrations being processed for all members.
The RP Annual is nearly finished and will be posted to all our financial members mid August, many thanks to Despina Mitrakas and Eleanor Gerry for their expertise and commitment  to producing a high class publication.

To all our members who are expecting  a new crop of foals, we wish  them all a safe and happy foaling.

Cheers
Sandra James Chair
