Maria Schwennesen and Kim Thomas have been elected to the Australian Dressage Judges Committee (ADJC) for a three year term. They join Lesley Sullivan, Jan Geary and Mary Seefried on the five member panel.
As part of the governance arrangements for its skills-based structure, a number of positions on the ADJC must be vacated on a rotational basis and opened for re-election.
This year the terms of committee members Virginia Creed and Kim Thomas fell due.
Under the current conditions, committee members can serve a maximum of two, three year terms before taking a 12 month break. As Kim had only served a single three year term she was eligible to re-apply for her position. Virginia was required to vacate her position as she had reached the end of her second term.
The new committee members will begin their 3-year term on 1 January 2014.
