2009 Spring Jubilee Open

The 2009 Spring Jubilee Open was big, and everyone benefitted from this year's 2-day format.  The weather was perfect for Saturday and Sunday, and the atmosphere was as warm and welcoming as the weather!  All the riders were encouraging and friendly to each other, and everyone was impressed with the caliber of riding this season.  Check out photos online by Larry Scott, our official horse show photographer, at larryscottphotography.org.

OUR ONE OF A KIND HORSE SHOW FORMAT

    This show series is unique in offering speed classes, where competitors are objectively judged against the clock.  Riders enter the ring one at a time and are timed over a course of jumps.  The rider with the best time, including penalty faults for run-outs, refusals and knockdowns, wins.  Riders are eliminated for going off-course or falling.

    There are 3 Height Divisions:  Beginner--18", Introductory--2'-2'3", and Intermediate--2'6"-2'9".  There are 4 classes in each division:  2 Jumper classes over different courses of stadium jumps and 2 Cross-Country classes over different courses of logs and natural obstacles in each division.  Competitors can choose to enter just one class, or the entire division.  There are no restrictions on entries competing in more than one height division.

Our Show is extremely beginner friendly.  We walk the course with all the beginner competitors, and give them all the same advice, answering questions along the way.  Open Schooling of the Jumper and Cross-Country Courses is allowed on Showday until the courses are posted (15 min. prior to class).  There is no Time Allowed, so competitors may take as long as they like to complete the course. 

    $12/class.  Ribbons are awarded to 1st - 6th Place.  Champion Ribbons are awarded to the competitor with the most points in their division for the show.  Grand Champion and Reserve Grand Champion trophies are awarded at the end of the season to the competitor with the most points in each height division from all the shows combined.

Competitors can bring their own horses or ride one of ours.  Riders using our horses must be pre-approved in a Lesson.  The Use of Horse fee for each show is $25.  We are limiting our horses to 8 classes per day, and the Use of Horse Fee for the show will be $25 -- make sure your reserve your horse early!  Horses may be reserved for the entire season, but if, for some reason, the rider has to miss the show, the Use of Horse Fee is nonrefundable.  The haul-in fee is waived for Horse Shows.  There is a $25 Non-Showing Fee for horses hauling in but not showing.  Stalls can be reserved in advance for horses hauling in for $30/day including bedding, a bucket and a fan.

There is no dress code.  Helmets are required when mounted.  Safety vests are recommended for Cross-Country.
