THESE AWARDS ARE CHAMPION AND RESERVE FOR EACH DRESSAGE CLASS! This is a big change from Champ and Reserve for each level as it recognizes more horses and riders who show in the series!

For Western Dressage we have a full size competition ring, huge warm up, permanent stalls in a large barn that is very close to both rings, wash stations, permanent restrooms, and very helpful, friendly managers and volunteers.
