Spring Combined Test & Schooling Show

Saturday, April 28th

Our schooling shows are a great opportunity to show off your skills for friends and family and get a taste of competition!  They are very low-key, we will coach you through it if you need help and everyone gets to go home with a ribbon.   Just a reminder that there are no lessons Saturday and you do not require a make-up lesson as this day was accounted for in the session.

Show Details: 
Dressage:
Grasshopper to Novice will ride a flat class before their show jumping round in the stadium ring.  Pre-Entry - Training will ride a full dressage test (see links above).  Ideally we will warm up in the small arena and ride the tests in the outdoor dressage ring, weather permitting.

Stadium:
Ideally, stadium will run in the outdoor ring with warm up in the large arena, weather permitting.  Riders will have approx. 30 min after their dressage test to change tack (if needed) and warm up over fences before their show jumping time.

Approximate Time Schedule:

The times are for the start of the division.  Riders should plan to arrive at least 45min early to do a thorough grooming, clean their tack, then tack-up and mount 15 - 20 minutes before their start time to warm up.   When you arrive, please check in at the show office in the camp trailer to pay and pick up your number.
