Das Schedule

I haven't been out to see Bastian since Thursday of last week.  I had to go to Erie, PA on Friday for the weekend.  I'm back home momentarily.  Tomorrow I am off to Penn State Main Campus for the 4-H Horse Advisory Committee meeting so I won't be back to the barn until Tuesday.  My trainer is keeping Bastian going, she rode him Saturday and is riding him on Monday, but I miss my boy.  Too many days without my horse means that my mood plummets.  I'm holding steady and I think I'll make it to Tuesday night since tomorrow should be fun and Tuesday I'm showing all of my classes movies in school so its a no-brainer kind of day for me. :)

So, when I'm seperated from my ponies for any length of time, I start to speculate and plan.  Hey, if I can't be actively riding, I should at least be spending double that time thinking about riding, right?

So here is my proposed show schedule for this summer:

  • May 8th Dressage Schooling Show at Grand Haven
    • Training 1 or 2
    • Training 4
    • First 2 or 4
  • May 16th Erie Hunt and Saddle Club Summer Show I
    • 2' hunters
    • Trail
    • Pleasure
    • Equitation
  • June 5th EHSC Combined Test
    • 2' Division
  • June 6th EHSC Summer Show II
    • 2' Hunters
    • Trail
    • Pleasure
    • Equitation
  • June 11th-13th  Recognized Dressage at Grand Haven and WPDA Show
    • Training 4 (Qual)
    • First 4 (Qual)
    • Hoping to get my qualifying scores for regionals
  • June 19th (and possibly 20th) Up and Over Double Points Show
    • 2' Hunters
  • July 4th South Farm Horse Trials
    • 2' Starter Division
  • July 10th-11th  Horse Sports in Erie Hunter Jumper Show
    • 2' Hunters
    • $150 Pleasure Stake (Woot!)
    • Class 77, the Classic if I can find someone who needs a horse to ride for this class (no way am I jumping 2'6" to 2'9")
  • July 18th EHSC Summer Show III
    • 2' Hunters
    • Trail
    • Pleasure
    • Equitation
  • July 31st Judged Trail Ride in Tidioute, PA

That's all for now.  August will include some more Up and Over Hunter Shows and I am going to start looking for a recognized event for Bastian in the fall. 

Its going to be a very busy three months, but I am really looking forward to everything!  I am so very super excited to show Bastian this year!  Woot! Now its off to bed, only a day and a half until I get to see my boy again :)

  1. Pity I didn't catch this last night. We could have gotten together for lunch or dinner since I work in State College now! Next time you're going to be down here give me a poke and we'll get together!

  2. They fed us a delicious "box lunch." No way were they gonna let us go out for lunch, we might not have come back! Our meeting was in the meat lab (stinky!) We started at 10 and didn't get done until 4.
