SHOWING & EVENT SCHEDULE
Events may be added as they become available, so this schedule may change.
Showing is a privilege, with a lot of time invested, so please be familiar with requirements; they have been established to make showing as enjoyable,
safe, rewarding and affordable for all.
Requirements:
1. 3 weeks advance notice to particpate in shows.
Please inform us of what shows you can do this year asap. We will have to do some intensive scheduling to ensure everyone
has a chance to show and meet end of year requirements.
2. It is required to assist with events.
Including prepping horses, packing equipment the night before an event, and to help put away and clean
up after event completion. Participating and helping other team members and the coach (es) at the show is mandatory.
3. To qualify for dressage show awards.
Team members must show a minimum of 3 shows, and including 5 tests, and volunteer 4 hours to each chapter (8 total).We volunteer while at shows.
Team riders (those showing for club awards) have first priority. (We will be full this year!)

We show for three clubs, membership required for all. All records for showing and year end awards will be maintained by WEST.
