The Horse trial staff know many of you have been worried about the air quality. We have been in touch with our vet, Chad Davis, and he has been in contact with the FEI vets at the Upperville Horse Show. They are all closely monitoring the situation. All indications are that we should be in an acceptable range by Saturday.

Thank you for your entry and we are looking forward to hosting a terrific event in Middleburg this weekend! A few housekeeping items for MOPC Middleburg Horse Trials:

• All trailers – please come in GATE 2 on both Saturday and Sunday – go through the polo arena parking and follow the signs to trailer parking.
• All volunteers/ spectators – please come in GATE 7 and follow signs around to the left past the ‘Red Barn’ to park.
• We will have VERY limited water available in the parking area – please plan accordingly. There is access to water back up by the polo arena and at the finish of XC.
• We will have food on site for breakfast and lunch both Saturday and Sunday.
• 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 and available online
• VTO Saddlery will be here both days
• We are planning to aerate the XC – we do have very good grass ground cover, but this will also help.
• We can’t run the HT without volunteers, and we are very low on volunteers!!!! Please ask your friends, neighbors, students, etc. to volunteer. For those that do volunteer there is FREE XC SCHOOLING for Tuesday June 13th at Great Meadow. Also, many prizes and gift cards that will be raffled off every day.
