Registration is now closed!
Registration for our December Training Day is now closed, and we are excited to share that the start list and full schedule will be uploaded here after Thanksgiving weekend. We’re looking forward to hosting everyone and wrapping up the year with a productive and fun day of riding.
We also want to address the ongoing EHV-1 situation and share how we are managing it. We have been in close contact with all attending barns, and based on the information provided, the horses coming to this event have remained at their home facilities and have not attended any shows since Tucson. Under general guidelines, any EHV-1 exposure typically presents symptoms within two weeks, which brings us to the end of Thanksgiving week.
We will reassess the situation after Thanksgiving, continue monitoring updates from state veterinarians and event participants, and will make the best possible decision with horse safety as our top priority. We will keep all participants informed of any changes.
And while you’re planning your December calendar, don’t forget to sign up for the December 5 & 7 clinic with Steffen Hauter! It’s a great opportunity to sharpen your skills and finish the season strong.
