Farewell to Winter - ONLINE DRESSAGE SHOW!

Blacktree Farm students & friends, 

you're invited to join our online dressage show!

Pick your favorite test(s) and start memorizing. There's $250 prize money in it for anyone that wins their class, a qualified outside judge, and you don't even have to come to our farm. Everyone is invited that has a video camera.  : )

• Entries will be judged by video, so no one needs to trailer! 
• Dress tidily, but don't worry about braiding or show attire. Boots on your horse are fine. 
• Once results are in, you'll be able to see the other videos submitted for your class, and you will get a scoresheet back from the judge with comments/scores. 
• Entry fee is $15 per class. For all classes with 3 or more entries (unless stated otherwise): 1st place will receive $250/ribbon; 2nd place $100/ribbon; 3rd place $50/ribbon.
