To: All Show Secretaries
If you are considering holding Dartmoor Pony Classes at your show you may apply to the Dartmoor Pony Society to affiliate so you can award Dartmoor Pony Society special rosettes to the highest placed Dartmoor pony, Dartmoor Class winners, and the Champion Dartmoor Pony both in Hand and Ridden.
All Shows who affiliated in 2010 will be sent affiliation forms early January 2011.
