NEWDA Renews Commitment to Mission
Upon our one-year anniversary, we asked our founding members to provide a statement on their
thoughts regarding the founding of NEWDA. Some of the responses included:
"The core concept upon which NEWDA was founded was "to develop an all-inclusive, supportive organization for the
purpose of dressage education, while restoring to the organization the fundamental principals of honesty, integrity, and
mutual respect." Stephanie Morgan
"The New Dressage Association was founded with the split of a prior GMO. With a year behind us now, I believe it truly
was in the best interest of its members to split. Being large in numbers doesn't always coincide with strength. As a
founding member my hopes are to reestablish trust and selflessness among our members and focus on our desire to
learn and become better partners with our horses." Cindy Ruetten
"I believe that the purpose of NEWDA should be to facilitate and foster the Chapters as they offer educational
opportunities throughout the geographical area covered by the organization. This should be carried out in an
atmosphere of honesty, respect and transparency." Barbara A. Cadwell
