Schooling Show & Open House Dec 20th!

In case you haven't seen the notices in the tack-up area we're having a Combined Test Schooling Show and Holiday Open House on Dec. 20th! Entries due by 9:00am this Friday (Dec. 18th), ride times will be posted by 12:00pm on Friday. We are going to run the format where you ride your dressage test around the stadium course then proceed directly into your stadium round. We found this was the best way to keep riders (and their spectators!) warm! The camp trailer will also be open and heated to keep everyone toasty warm. Our Open House will be begin at 1:00pm, pony games anyone? Everyone is welcome to attend! There is a sign-up sheet in the tack-up area for pot-luck contributions. Hope to see you all there!
