She rides, trains and teaches at Fairlane Farm in Aiken and judges about a dozen dressage shows and events each year. In her popular Ask the Judge column, she answers readers’ questions about dressage. Dear Amy, in recent years. They come in many styles, are comfortable, cool and lightweight. Some even come with “bling.” I am getting ready to start this year’s show season at the Fourth There are also a few other recent changes in the rules for proper Level. I just got a gorgeous top hat for Christmas. My trainer has attire. The rules state that in Fourth Level and below “A short riding always told me that when I can come down the centerline in the coat of conservative color . is mandatory.” Proper conservative canter, it would be time for me to wear my top hat. When my colors are: black, grey, navy or brown. A newer rule says that coats husband learned that I would be showing Fourth level, he surprised may have contrast coloring, and/or piping. For example a black coat me with this gift. with light pink collars would be acceptable, or a grey coat with black So, now that I am ready and I have the hat, I have heard that I can collars.

  • Trail Trials Rules and Guidelines
    Trail Trials Rules and Guidelines TABLE OF CONTENTS Section Title 1 INTRODUCTION 2 GENERAL RULES 3 OBSTACLE RULES 4 HOW TO ORGANIZE A TRAIL TRIALS 5 A WORD FROM THE MANAGEMENT Section 1 INTRODUCTION Trail Trials have become a popular event in many areas. They are not new, just getting more well-known. They consist of a trail ride, usually averaging between two and three hours, with trail obstacles along the way. Bear in mind that the later you start your competition, the longer your ride can be due to possible waits at some obstacles. Obstacles are natural, or simulate naturally occurring conditions (including urban) for the horse and rider to negotiate. However, emphasis should be placed on having natural obstacles. There are usually 8-12 obstacles to test the rider's knowledge and the horse's capabilities. Trail trials are meant to be fun and enjoyable for everyone. As long as safety and common sense are kept in mind, everyone will have a good time. It is important to remember that the people doing the judging at sanctioned trail trials events are volunteers following this rule book and are doing the best they can. They are NOT paid professionals. It must be understood that these rules are guidelines subject to various interpretations by (sometimes) inexperienced judges. This rule book was started in 1987 by members of Corrals 12, 22, 35, 54 and 63 (the original Trail Trials Committee) with the thought of standardizing the rules for all contestants and to give guidelines for those wanting to put on a trail trial event.

  • Historic Costuming Presented by Jill Harrison
    Historic Southern Indiana Interpretation Workshop, March 2-4, 1998 Historic Costuming Presented By Jill Harrison IMPRESSIONS Each of us makes an impression before ever saying a word. We size up visitors all the time, anticipating behavior from their age, clothing, and demeanor. What do they think of interpreters, disguised as we are in the threads of another time? While stressing the importance of historically accurate costuming (outfits) and accoutrements for first- person interpreters, there are many reasons compromises are made - perhaps a tight budget or lack of skilled construction personnel. Items such as shoes and eyeglasses are usually a sticking point when assembling a truly accurate outfit. It has been suggested that when visitors spot inaccurate details, interpreter credibility is downgraded and visitors launch into a frame of mind to find other inaccuracies. This may be true of visitors who are historical reenactors, buffs, or other interpreters. Most visitors, though, lack the heightened awareness to recognize the difference between authentic period detailing and the less-than-perfect substitutions. But everyone will notice a wristwatch, sunglasses, or tennis shoes. We have a responsibility to the public not to misrepresent the past; otherwise we are not preserving history but instead creating our own fiction and calling it the truth. Realistically, the appearance of the interpreter, our information base, our techniques, and our environment all affect the first-person experience. Historically accurate costuming perfection is laudable and reinforces academic credence. The minute details can be a springboard to important educational concepts; but the outfit is not the linchpin on which successful interpretation hangs.

  • 2016 Brittish Riding Pony Breed Standards and Showing Rules
    2016 Brittish Riding Pony Breed Standards and Showing Rules Secretary: Mrs Alicia M Hay Blairview, By Milnathort, KY13 0SF 07970 816416 www.npsscotland.co.uk BRITISH RIDING PONY BREED DESCRIPTION The British Riding Pony is a breed, established over a hundred years ago, originally by the Polo Pony Stud Book Society in 1893. However, 20 years later it became the National Pony Society and to this day it is the custodian of the Stud Book. The Stud Book was formed to encourage the breeding, registration and improvement of both Riding Ponies and at that time all the native breds too, though they now have their own stud books. The foundation blood lines of all the British Riding Ponies were Polo Ponies, Thoroughbreds, Arabs and the British Native Breeds (mostly Welsh or Dartmoor). An increasing number of the ponies now being registered with the NPS are the progeny of British Riding Pony sires and dams and through many generations of selective breeding a very high standard has been achieved. British Riding Ponies are of three categories or types – Show Ponies, Show Hunter Ponies and Sports/Competition Ponies. The Sports Ponies result from cross breeding with Sport Horses or Ponies. All types have outstanding quality while retaining the pony characteristics of good temperament, hardiness, soundness and surefootedness. They provide an ideal mount for today’s competitive riders and are successful in a wide variety of equine competitions and disciplines. The British Riding Pony is much respected and sought after world wide and some of the best blood lines have been exported, predominantly to Australia, New Zealand and America.
