Next week most of our students will be performing our level 1 show. So I will list the requirements to be able to participate in the show and then also the patterns so the riders can study them and be ready for the show on Tue and Wed. Remember this is all for fun and to show your family how much you have learned in just the last 3 months.
- Must take all 4 tests with a score of 20/33 or higher.
- Must be able to groom and saddle horse unassisted.
- Must direct bit and chin strap for bridle also do up throat latch.
- Must be able to mount horse unassisted.
- Must score 7/10 or higher in Showmanship (halter)
- Must score 7/10 or higher in Horsemanship course.
- Must score 10/15 or higher in Trail course.
- Must complete barrel pattern without DQ at a walk is fine.
- Must complete pole pattern without DQ at a walk is fine.
- Must dismount safely and tie horse correctly.
I know this is a lot for most of these kids but they have come such a long way in the last 3 months I feel like they are ready to move to level 2. Remember if your child doesn't complete level 1 at this show they will have the opportunity to try again when they are ready. We allow students to all go at their own pace to create a fun and safe environment.
