To offset the cost of running the club, all members are expected to assist with the running of club competitions. These competitions raise much needed revenue for the club to substantially subsidise the membership fees.
As a "User Group" of the amazing Woady Yaloak Equestrian Centre grounds, all members are expected to sign up and help at the annual Friends of Woady Horse Trials every May.
To save costs we also ask that members take turns to clean the club rooms after lunch (sweeping, emptying bins etc).
The HRCAV year starts on the 1st of November each year. However, if you would like to join us later in the year Ballarat ARC also offers pro-rata membership options.
