As the season continues, you visit venues with different terrain and fence type questions, an “off” fence or even two occurs and then you might be thinking- time to stop or time to kick on ? this is some great advice from two very experienced coaches.

I want to thank our patient, knowledgeable FEI Eventing course directors, the crew at PRATONI that looked after us and my colleagues and new friends in the sport I met there. I was grateful to be awarded the Haller grant for education from USEA last winter as it allowed me to attend the FEI event judge level 2 transfer up course in Italy. Many thanks also to my patient colleagues and instructors who answer my texts and emails, questions during course walks and work together to find the right way to keep the sport going forward when we officiate. I was very dependent on gracious organizers across the USA who allowed me to attend and officiate at their events in various capacities as I worked to obtain the required prerequisites. It’s been a long journey from the early 80’s when I rode in my first USCTA events!
I am so fortunate to be able to host clinics, schooling events and USEF,USEA,FEI events at my own home while in turn welcoming apprentices and colleagues as they try to rise thru official levels in the sport. This last weekend here in Spokane was amazing and again so grateful for volunteers, staff, and officials who made it a special weekend for almost 300 competitors. This life is far beyond what I ever imagined and I feel blessed beyond measure.

Matt Trynoski explains what question a Swedish Oxer poses to horses and riders as they will see on his Show Jumping course Sunday. Coincidentally, this oxer just happens to pay an ode to our Canadian neighbors.

Show Jumping will begin at 8:00 AM with the Advanced Division.

It’s so fun seeing these horses out loving their job (and to GALLOP!)!

The footing is just spectacular! Yay for the little bits of rain to keep it even better.
