As in the past, all judges will offer brief feedback at the end of your dressage test!

The Pick Your Time/Test schooling dressage shows afford competitors the chance to ride any test at any available time of day. Riders use an online form to select their tests, their ride times, and to submit paperwork and payment. The earlier one signs up, the more likely that preferred time slots are still open. Enter now!

Fix-a-Test also offered! Like a mini dressage lesson--you will perform your test and then get feedback from the judge, work on problem areas and ride the test again, if desired. Limited spots available - large or small ring test.

Leadline dressage tests will be offered. Use one of our suggested tests or find your own. Para dressage, gaited, Western, and Young Horse tests are also welcome and encouraged.

Ribbons: For these shows, riders will be pinned using the Danish system. Tests scoring:

• 70% or higher get a blue ribbon
• 66%-69.999% get a red ribbon
• 62%-65.999% get a yellow ribbon
• 57%-61.999% get a white ribbon
• 52%-56.999 get a pink ribbon

This method rewards the rider's hard work and individual accomplishments without the stress of head-to-head competition.

Remember that you "own" your ride slot. If you're not able to come you're responsible for either filling the slot or paying for it.

Times and tests are emailed or posted by the Wednesday before the event. Please check that everything is correct before the show!
