Horse Show Information


If you are interested in having your child compete in a horse show, please let me know.  I travel to all different kinds of shows.  Some shows accommodate beginners, some advanced riders.  But most of them accommodate everyone.  Please see the Calendar of Events Page for a list of shows I will be attending.  I will include which type of classes are offered with help from a key in the middle of this page.  Please note that certain attire is required at most horse shows.
