We held our first "Dressage Derby" July 31st, 2005. Could there be anything more fun???? You enter yourself and your horse for Intro Level Test 2, or Training Level Test 4. You then toss your horse's name(twice), into a hat. You draw the name of 2 other entered horses(not your own), and ride the same test (on the other horses). Your horse's name is drawn twice by other entrants, and your horse also rides the same test 2 more times. There were awards for the top 3 rider scores (combined, of the 3 rides) and there were awards for the top 3 horses!!!! Low entry fee (very, very low) and much fun to be had.
Will we do this again in 2008? Yes! Join us on date TBA for a fun day of Dressage Derby. Email Nancy for entry info.
2007 brought the introduction of Polocrosse to the HorseAmour Adult team. Inspired at the Equine Affaire, member Tonya came home and made a full set of Polocrosse nets and introduced the game at our last meeting in December. We are all hooked!!! After a few false starts everyone began to get the hang of it. Even the horses got used to it easily, and we hope to get together semi-regularly for this fun sport. Won't you join us?

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming...'Wow...what a ride!'"
