Update on Upcoming Shows

Entries for Covered Bridge were due today.  I sent in entries for Stephanie, Morgan A and myself. I believe Emily Farrar sent one in as well.  We will be riding up that morning... it will most likely be very early.  Good Times! 


Next show opportunity is Spring Run Dressage Show or Midde Tenn Combine Test and XC schooling at Percy Warner Park. The latter of the two is further away and probably more expensive but they throw that fXC school in and it makes it worth it. They are both March 29th.  I know Steph and Megan had wanted to do Spring Run but if this new option interests anyone including Megan and Stephanie let me know.  I think the entry fee for the Spring Run is 20/class plus 5 for medical fee , entries for Mid Ten are $45 non PCer, 25 PCer and schooling XC is 15.   No stabling at either so again very early AMs. woo hoo. 


After that is Sayre School CT in Lexington.  The open date for this is March 25th.  This one is more expensive because it is USEA recognized.  If we go to Mid Ten, we probably won't do this one.  The show is on May 10th.  The cost for a USEA member is 92, for a non-member it is 117.  Yikes.... that might as well be a Horse Trial at that cost.  I think I would not suggest this one for non USEA members.  There are other things in the summer that we can go to that aren't so pricey. 


The weekend after that May 17-18 we will be back up at Masterson Station anyway for the Emily Beshear clinic which is sponsored by Pennyrile PC.  That is Beginner Novice Through Prelim, but everyone is welcome as an auditor and pony clubbers will be expected to work because it is a fundraiser.  :-)

I am good for either. I do like another combined test because it gives us the ability to work on both dressage and jumping. Spring Run is closer and cheaper but xc schooling sounds appealing. Do they have starter jumps at percy warner? I remember walking it but we walked the novice I thought. Would I be able to school xc at that point?

I sent my entry form in on Sat. so I'm hoping it got there! Do you think it did? I hope so! Where is Percy Warner Park? X-country schooling sounds fun but I don't know what we are doing but if you all decide on going X-country schooling could you let me know so I could ask my mom?
Thanks!

Percy Warner is south of Nashville. It takes about 2 1/2hrs to get there. This would be a very inexpensive show to attend as a pony clubber... we probably should have thought about going to this one instead of Covered Bridge. Oh well.

For Mid. Tenn. I have Steph, Megan and myself so I have one more spot in the trailer before we have to figure out two trailers. It might be a first come first serve situation.

If we need to take two trailers, I can use Robbie's truck to pull the smaller trailer.

Emily--The xc at percy warner is amazing! I walked the coarse with Lori and Megan when they went this past summer. You should definately go to school the coarse. I think you would do really good! Especially with your awesome new horse. :)
