Each level will be divided by Junior and Senior, if entries warrant, and there may be more than one section of each level depending on the number of entries in each level.

We have made the decision to only offer the Elementary, Modified Beginner Novice and Beginner Novice divisions for the foreseeable future, and not run a Novice division. We have enjoyed good success with these levels and it makes the day more manageable for us with our reduced parking situation. The Modified Beginner Novice division is a bridge from the Walk-Trot level to the Beginner Novice level.  It offers a walk-trot-canter dressage test while the fence height remains at 2¹0". This level and the others that we offer seem to fill a niche in the equestrian community and we look forward to seeing new and returning competitors in 2008.
