Competitor Notes:

Updated 6/9/22

  • We are working to secure a food truck, in the event we do not secure one, please plan accordingly as food options will be a distance from the venue. We will post an update on the website if we do get one.
  • All trailers – please come in GATE 2 on both Saturday and Sunday – go to the right and follow the signs to parking. There will be someone there directing you.
  • All volunteers/ spectators – please come in GATE 7 and follow signs around to the left past the “Red Barn” to park.
  • We will have NO water available in trailer parking – please plan accordingly. There is access to water back up by the polo arena and the end of xc.
  • IF WE GET THE RAIN WE ARE FORCASTED FOR – MOST OF THE DRESSAGE WILL BE OVER IN THE ALL WEATHER – PLEASE CHECK WITH THE SECRETARY AS TO WHERE YOUR RING WILL BE!!!!
  • There will be a shuttle that can take people from the secretary tent to the competition area.
  • We will not have ice for sale – there is a gas station in The Plains that has ice.
  • NO CARS OR TRUCKS will be allowed up by competition area during competition – bikes/ golf carts/ gators will be allowed.
  • Course Maps will be up by start box on Friday afternoon – Start boxes are on far side of main arena.
  • Note: With multiple rides, you need to ride your dressage test at the scheduled time and although we prefer you ride SJ and XC on time, in some cases you may not be able to. However, you need to finish your rides before that level is done. If you foresee a problem, let the secretary know. If you have 2 horses in the same level you can ride all of the SJ first followed by all of them in XC or in the regular order (i.e. SJ followed by XC for each horse)
