The “Spirit” of our Divisions

There are no strict guidelines for registering in a walk/trot division. Show Committee realizes that enforcing a guideline would not be possible, except for those in our 4-H Program. In the spirit of fair competition, the 4-H Office request that you enter the division that truly represents your riding level – not that of your horse. Our walk/trot divisions are included to help the beginner rider develop confidence and to learn the ins and outs of competition in the show ring. They are not included to serve as training classes for young/inexperienced horses ridden by experienced competitors.

Thank you
