Text notifications
In order to make it easier on everyone we are trialling the use of "teamer.net" as a way of keeping track of who is attending rallies and to text everyone if a ridden rally is changed to HM. All families with active riding members (Pony Club aged) and our instructors will be added to our teamer contacts list.
A text will come from teamer to all families prior to each rally. It asks for a Y or N response to confirm attendance.
The teamer number is a NZ Vodafone number and normal NZ texts costs apply. Depending on your own cell phone set up it will be cost between 0 and 20c to reply.
When a ridden rally changes to HM we will still email, update the website and get it on the radio but you will now also get a cancellation text of the rally. When this happens please interpret it to mean there will be unmounted HM starting at 9.30am.
No decision on whether or not a rally will go ahead is made before 7.30am. Please wait for notification rather than contacting a committee member prior to this time.
