Spring Eventing Schedule

Alright gang, everyone has asked for my guess as to where Mira and I will be competing this year. The following is my “wish list” calendar. These are the events that I really hope to attend this year. If all goes well Mira will hopefully go to her first FEI event in the late summer, early fall.

February  4^th and 5^th Poplar Place (PT )…really wanna go, can’t find anyone else to go, have a TON of memberships to renew so probably not going L

I also have the IDA team/Dressage team at school competing in between here, as well as training for the Tough Mudder and competing at the TM, so this event probably won't happen...

March 30^th -April 1^st  FENCE HT (PT) Ok, Maggie wants to go here, so I have at least one other person to go… and it’s a good starting out event. If I wait for this I can get all of the IDA stuff done for the college and the Tough Mudder will be over. This is looking like the best plan…

April 20^th- 22^nd River Glen HT (P) I love this event, especially in the spring and it will be a good first Prelim, and its an easy drive J

May 4^th- 6^th Poplar Place HT (P) This is major tentative…again gotta find people to go with me to this one!

May 18^th- 20^th Greater Dayton HT (P) I had so much fun at this event last summer, so I am excited to go back this spring and again it’s an easy drive

May 26^th-27^th Maydaze HT (P) This one is tentative…I would rather run the previous two and avoid this one…its all the extra fees you have to pay, plus we have run the horse park SO many times…

June 1^st-3^rd Indiana Eventing Association HT (P) I love this event too and its an easy drive.. I think there will be people who will want to go here with me too J

And hopefully if all goes well at these I can run the CCI 1* in June

June 21^st-24^th  Fox River Valley HT/FEI (CCI 1*) This is the plan, but if I don’t run it here I will have to wait until August or September…but money may be a factor as well so August is more realistic.

If not the above then,

June 23^rd-24^th Midsouth PC HT (P) This event was good to us last year, gotta defend our good placement J

This is as far as I have gotten right now. I’ll keep everyone posted as to the rest of the season. I know I shouldn’t rush it, and well I can’t afford to so this is probably as close to definite as I’ll get at the moment.  In between all of these things there are little jumper shows and dressage shows I will attend as well as any events not mentioned with students even if I am not competing. Let me know if anyone has any questions or if you want to go to any of these events with us. The more the merrier!
