While I was in Florida, I went to a horse show with a friend.
What a beautiful barn - looks like a house!
This horse show was low key - just a schooling/training show. But I was so glad I went! The girls from the barn that I went with did 3 events: Dressage; Staduim; Cross Country
Before the show, we walked the cross country course. It was long! And no one knows the course until that morning. (goes for all 3 events, so you have to memorize all 3 that morning - yikes!)
1st event - Dressage: basic description: Riders do circles, etc in a ring; having to trot; walk or canter at certain points.
Riders waiting for their events
Event 2: Stadium: Riders jump obstacles in a circular area
Beautiful day - but the shade was still very welcome!
Event 3 - Riders jump obstacles over 5 or more acres
Looks like so much fun!
Since there weren't too many horses/riders, the event ended by early afternoon which was nice.
Fun day!!
