President’s Message Welcome to South West Trillium! We are very much looking forward to our 2022 Show Season.

2021 continued to bring challenges both due to COVID 19 and the weather! We were able to persevere and offer 4 South West Trillium shows even with a last minute venue change. This year, we are intent on bringing you 5 shows and have allocated a rain date to hold as a back up in the event that we need to reschedule a show. Your board and show managers are working hard to bring you another great season.

Our shortened season of 5 shows helps to ensure that we are budget and schedule friendly circuit. We are hopeful that government and public health regulations will not be much of a factor this year, but we may still need to remain flexible.

We are excited to welcome two new show managers. One new manager is Savannah Rijk at her Andromeda Equestrian. This facility was run previously as Warwick Equestrian Development. We also have Melissa Vance running a show at her Millside Stables. The show was previously run as F & M Trillium.

We are continuing to work with MyESM again this year for our entry system.

MyESM has made some upgrades over the winter, and are ready to provide you with an exclusive show experience. Get your courses online and real time updates on the show. You will receive a free trial of this great feature at the first show!

Sign up for text/email updates as well! If you are new to South West, please start to create your profile at www.myesm.ca. You can contact us or MyESM with any questions.

Feedback was very positive regarding last year’s Championship show in our Nation’s Capital. Competitors had tons of accommodation options and felt really welcomed

by Wesley Clover and the City of Ottawa. The rings and the competition were fabulous. We are excited to hear that the 2022 Trillium Championships will be returning to Ottawa! This will once again be a destination event for the whole

family. Keep watch of both our website and social media accounts as well as the THJA for all the updates!

The Perfect Attendance Award was well received by our competitors last year. Sofia Weed Trejo was our 2021 winner. Riders that compete in all 5 shows will be recognized at the end of the year and in our 2023 show guide. One lucky rider will win free entries to all 2023 South West Trillium Shows. New in 2022, the coach with the most riders having ‘Perfect Attendance’ will also win a prize!

This year, we will continue to recognize horse show improvements in honour of Frances ‘Sanie’ Fleming Mordue, a wonderful EC steward who was very well known and loved in our region for many many years. We are very honoured to be able to recognize Sanie’s dedication to the sport and our region.

A few points to remember: - In order to collect points in your divisions and classes, make sure you have all your memberships (EC, OE, THJA) in place prior to the first show.

- Owners and Riders in Silver divisions must have an EC Silver, OE and THJA membership.

- Owners and Riders in the Bronze divisions must have an EC Bronze, OE and THJA membership.

- Horses require a digital Horse Recording except for the Hack Division and Bronze Divisions.

- THJA memberships are required only if you wish to collect points towards Championships and year end awards. Points cannot be awarded retroactively, so make sure you have them before the first show!!!

For 2022, the 50% rule has been amended to allow for movement between divisions and competitors will only need to compete in 3 shows on South West in order to qualify for Championships and year end awards!

Wishing you a safe and successful show season

EQUESTRIAN CANADA STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLE:

The Trillium shows listed in this program are recognized provincial circuit competitions of Equestrian Canada and are governed by the rules of the Federation.

Equestrian Canada (EC), the national equestrian federation of Canada, supports adherence to the humane treatment of horses in all activities under its jurisdiction.

EC is committed to: • Upholding the welfare of all horses, regardless of value, as a primary consideration in all activities; • Requiring that horses be treated with kindness, respect and the compassion that they deserve, and that they never be subjected to mistreatment; • Ensuring that owners, trainers and exhibitors or their agents, use responsible care in the handling, treatment and transportation of their horses as well as horses placed in their care for any purpose; • Providing for the continuous well-being of horses by encouraging routine inspection and consultation with health care professionals and competition officials to achieve the highest possible standards of nutrition, health, comfort and safety as a matter of standard operating procedure; • Continuing to support scientific studies on equine health and welfare; • Requiring owners, trainers and exhibitors to know and follow their sanctioning organization’s rules, and to work within the industry regulations in all equestrian competition; • Reviewing, revising and developing competition rules and regulations that protect the welfare of the horses.

The standard by which conduct or treatment will be measured is that which a person, informed and experienced in generally accepted equine training and competition procedures, would determine to be neither cruel, abusive, nor inhumane.

STATEMENT OF LIABILITY:

Neither the Southwest Trillium Circuit, the Show committee, the Show facilities and the owners or any of it’s staff or agents shall be in any way liable for any accident, injury, damage, loss, or for any other matter that may happen, from any cause or circumstances whatsoever to competitors, exhibitors, members, or their agents or to anyone on the competition grounds or to any animal or article exhibited or to any property brought on the competition grounds or for any other loss, claim, matter, circumstance, or even whatsoever in connection with or arising out of or attributable to the competition or any journey to or from the competition.

Lacey May Jamieson (1997 – 2013) is fondly remembered and honoured each year with the awarding of the Lacey May Jamieson Memorial Trophy. This award is lovingly sponsored each year by Vicki Edgar of Cohen Highly Law Firm and is presented to the Zone Champion of the 1.1m Jumper Division.

Lacey Jamieson was a hard-working and dedicated rider, who competed on the South West Trillium Circuit. She was always known to have a smile on her face and a great positive attitude, as well as being helpful and encouraging to her fellow competitors. She was well liked by our local equestrian community and also, with the help of Social Media, the Global equestrian community.

Sadly, on October 13, 2013 at the age of 16, Lacey passed away suddenly of a rare blood disease called Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). Lacey’s bond with horses, presence and beautiful smile are sadly missed by all of the South West Community.

Lacey Jamieson Memorial Trophy

Riley Dobson Memorial Award Riley Dobson (2000 – 2016) was an active competitor on the Ontario Trillium Circuit, in both the Central West and South West regions. Tragically, on February 22, 2016, Riley passed away due to complications from a helicopter accident. Riley made his mark on the South West community in a short time, forming many strong friendships, and is sadly missed.

The Riley Dobson Memorial Award is a nominated award open to a South West Trillium Hunter Jumper Association member who exemplifies the qualities most remembered in Riley.

Riley was known for his desire to learn; for his hard work and dedication to the sport; for supporting all other competitors; for his mismatched socks, and for always putting the horse first. This award celebrates the qualities that Riley stood for. #WWRD Nominations for the Riley Dobson Memorial Award will be available online. The deadline for submissions is at the close of the Championship Show.

Sanie Fleming Horse Show Improvement Award Frances ‘Sanie’ Fleming Mordue (1932-2019) was a long time Senior Steward for Equestrian Canada and a very familiar face on the South West Trillium Circuit in the 80s and 90s. She will be remembered for her friendly, smiling face, fair attitude and no-nonsense approach to the rules and welfare of the horse. Sanie lost her courageous battle with cancer on November 9, 2019 in her 87th year.

The South West Trillium Circuit is very honoured to be able to recognize Sanie’s influence in the equestrian world annually with our Horse Show Improvement award in her honour.

The award will be presented to the South West Trillium show that has demonstrated the most improvement each year as determined by the Show Standards Committee and competitor feedback.
