These shows are meant to be a low-key, pleasant showing experience for all horses and riders. We will try to accommodate special tests and special requests when possible.

**If you plan to use Club Bucks or a Show Credit for a portion or all of your entry, please email the show secretary BEFORE entering and paying on this form!**

Intro Level competitors will participate in Dressage and Ease of Handling only, while Levels 2–5 will compete in all three phases: Dressage, Ease of Handling, and Speed.

Dressage will take place in the covered arena, while the Ease of Handling and Speed phases will be held in the outdoor arena.

Ride times and a course map will be provided within the week leading up to the show. The competition will follow USA Working Equitation (USAWE) rules and judging standards.

Competitors are responsible for reviewing and understanding the rules before the event. According to the 2026 USAWE rules, Level 1 riders may receive a 5-point penalty instead of disqualification for performance-related infractions. Additionally, Level 1 and Level 2 riders may use a caller for all trials.

Ride times are tentative; riders must be aware of their entry order and track the trial’s progress. USAWE allows riders 60 seconds to present themselves at the gate after being called.

For a complete list of USAWE rules, visit www.usawe.org/competitions/rules.
