Read what past competitors have to say, and see why our Area 2 Training 3-Day is “The Ride of Your Life!”
I really had a great time and learned so much. You all were very well organized and all the volunteers were very, very patient and helpful.
Most bang for my riding buck ever!
Nancy Seybold, 2006 competitor
I'd just like to say a very sincere and heartfelt thank you to you and all your team. The Training 3-Day was an absolute treat! From the lectures, demos, guest speakers, course walks and amazing sponsor gifts - unbelievable.
Tanya Milner, 2005 competitor
I just want everyone to know that this is one FANTASTIC event, you should go, you should volunteer, and you should do the course walks and do the talks and learn, learn, learn.
Dorothy Jackson Smith, 2007 competitor
These people and many others freely donated their time to share their knowledge, vast experience, humor, insight and support while they are teaching AND judging you .... their combined efforts gave us the ultimate backdrop for having an unbelievable amount of true fun...I had the time of my life when competing over challenging but safe courses; I learned so much on a number of different levels about myself and my horse; experienced camaraderie with other competitors from another part of the country; and experienced a deeper relationship with my homebred horse than I thought was possible. I also walked away with a profound respect for the commitment our upper level riders put into this, with an appreciation for their talent, work-ethic, resiliency, accessibility and passion for the sport.
Most eventers will never compete at the highest international levels of our sport, but by providing lower level riders like myself a chance to ride in a three-day format gives us insight and opportunity to have a true horsemanship challenge that is rewarding, diversified and safe. Providing a program that offers us access to this type of quality experience and education is unprecedented. Thank you to everyone for making this possible.
Mary R. Jordan and Paxton Abbey, Wells, Maine
I salute you. You are the ones that will be saving the classic three day event.
