Please respond to request of Vet Committee AERC in
Endurance News, Jan. page 37;  It is under
consideration to raise sanctioning fees $5.  for 
a more expensive drug test.

The drug test used presently will detect minute
drugs and is certainly good to protect the horse.
I disagree about using a more expensive test simply 
for the cost required.  If I need to treat a horse
within the withdrawl period I can enter a different mount.
(another reason most serious riders have several)

The cost of fuel has most of my ride buddies seriously
looking at which rides to enter in FL.  In addition I
would like to see Managers separate non essential items from
the entry fee (such as food)  Expensive prizes that are unsponsored truly 
should be reconsidered too.  

A spin off problem is if you do not enter the backyard
rides  they may be lost entirely with unability to break even.

Please contact the vet committee vis the chair Melissa Ribley:

Thanks for all of us on limited budgets.
